Methods of Factorisation
(i) Common factors (ii) By expressing as difference of squares (iii) By grouping (iv) Trinomials (v) Sum or difference of cub..
Methods of solving quadratic equations
There are four methods of solving quadratic equations. i) By factorization ii) By completing the squares iii) By using the formula iv) By graphi..
Summary
If all the terms of the polynomial have a common factor, we take out the common factor and factorise. If the polynomial can be expressed as the difference of two squares, we use a 2 - b 2 = (a + b) (a - b)..
Second Method:
x 2 - 2x - 48 = x 2 - 8x + 6x - 48 = x(x - 8) + 6(x - 8) = (x - 8) (x + 6) When the coefficient of the highest power is not unity. i.e., type ax 2 bx c, when and b and c are integers. Multiply (3x + 2) (x + 4) and consider the result so obtained. = 3x (x + 4) +2 (x + 4) = 3x 2 + 12x..

Second Method:
x 2 - 7x - 8x + 56 Write -15x as -7x and -8x = x (x - 7) - 8 (x - 7) = (x - 7) (x - 8) Now, we consider a case where the third term of the trinomial is negative. Resolve into factors: x 2 + 3x - 28 Since the third term of the trinomial is -28, find two factors of 28 which..
