07 - Factoring Perfect Square Trinomials & Factoring the Difference of Two Squares

In this lesson, we will learn what a perfect square trinomial is and how to factor perfect square trinomials. Perfect square trinomials are special because they can be factored immediately once you recognize their special form.

We will also learn what the difference of two squares is and how to factor the difference of two squares. This occurs when two terms are squared and subtracted from one another. The factored form can be immediately written down without any further work once you understand the pattern to look for.

Greatest math teacher ever hands down, this man is a genius

Good sir. May I point out that not only do you teach maths, but you are giving people like myself, at the age of 43, the greatest opportunity to enjoy it and explore opportunities coming out of it. I feel liberated. Thank you soooo much.

I'm taking online Intermediate Algebra. The professor is non-existent and when I ask a question, they won't even respond.
I have to say that you explain everything very clearly and just do an overall great job.
I've watched a few of your videos now and they have helped me tremendously.
Thank you very much for these. They really do help.

"There is no way you can look at this equation when starting algebra and come out with this final answer", you are correct Sir.

This is good but it will be much better if you also start explaining some hard questions

[michaelyoung]

I’d probably working for NASA right now if I had teachers like this in school.

[sahilyosufi]

Hey, should we sign in on the course (web) to purchase the videos??

[troodonfarhad]

Agree, the name is more complicated than the actual thing

[eframillanduan]

How to factor this problem (a+b)²-(a-b)²
Thank you for your answer

In the ninth grade I had remembered these formulas for trillions times.
