UNIT 6 L2 Factoring & Quadratics FACTORING

NOTES for PAGES 6 & 7  AND PAGES  8 & 9

This post and slideshow is technically out of order, since it comes after Lesson 3, which covered Pages 10 & 11.

Most of you will have these notes, because you were in class. If you have notes written on Pages 7 & 9, and the examples on Pages 6 & 8 done, then you are caught up.

There are a few of you however, who missed a a day or two during the week of February 9th thru February 13th. We also had shortened periods on the 12th, due to the water issue at the high school. If you don't have the notes and examples done, use this slideshow to help you catch up.

This slideshow introduces the following 3 Factoring Patterns


  1. Greatest Common Factor
  2. Difference of Squares
  3. Trinomial Factoring ( a = 1 )
   As well as combining the GCF with one of the other two factoring patterns.

UNIT 6 L1 Factoring & Quadratics MULTIPLYING POLYNOMIALS

NOTES for PAGE 3

When viewing this slideshow, you will copy 4 slides onto Page 3.

The first 2 slides are Polynomial Vocabulary. Copy this info to the top third  of Page 3

The second set of information is the Distributive Method example fully done. Copy this to the middle third of Page 3.

The last set of information is the Box / Grid Method example fully done. Copy this to the bottom third of Page 3.

When you reach the end, you should be able to accurately multiply the polynomials found on Page 2 of your notebook, and then complete the first half A 6 - 1.
