Factoring 4a4 - 4a2 - 1
The first term is, 4a4 its coefficient is 4 .
The middle term is, -4a2 its coefficient is -4 .
The last term, "the constant", is -1
Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 4 • -1 = -4
Step-2 : Find two factors of -4 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is -4 .
-4 + 1 = -3
-2 + 2 = 0
-1 + 4 = 3
Observation : No two such factors can be found !!
Conclusion : Trinomial can not be factored
Final result :
2 • (4a4 - 4a2 - 1)
———————————————————
a2 • (2a - 1)
