Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Factor trinomials with a leading coefficient of 1.
· Factor trinomials with a common factor.
· Factor trinomials with a leading coefficient other than 1
Step-by-step explanation:
2.Factor trinomials of the form .
Factor trinomials with a common factor.
3.The general form of a quadratic trinomial is written as ax2 + bx + c where a, b, and c are constants. The “easy” case happens when the value of aa is equal to +1+1 or - 1−1, that is a = 1a=1 or a = - 1a=−1. You don’t need to write the coefficient of 11 before the {x^2}x

term because it is understood.
If you are up for a challenge, I have another lesson on factoring trinomial where the absolute value of the leading coefficient is not equal to 1. It is called Factoring Trinomials (“Hard Case”). Believe me, it is not really that hard. You will just have to perform extra steps.
Thus, the general form of the “easy” case is reduced to
Easy Case of a Trinomial
factoring ax^2+bx+c implies a=1 therefore we can rewrite this as x^2+bx+c
