The process of expressing a polynomial as a product of other polynomials is called factoring. Example Multiply: Factoring is the same process in reverse

Factor: Notice that each term in this trinomial has a greatest common factor of 3x.

Special Formulas When you factor a polynomial, first check whether you can use one of the special formulas shown in the previous section. Difference of Two Squares: Perfect Squares: Sum of Two Cubes: Difference of Two Cubes:

Example: Factor Completely:

Look for factors of 18 whose sum is 11.

Factors of , -1 5, -2 -5, 2 -10, 1 Sum

Factor By Grouping:
