Factorizing trinomials
Factorizing trinomials In this article, we study about factoring trinomials. Trinomials are defined in Mathematics an expression containing 3 unlike terms. For example, xz+y-2 is a trinomial, whereas x2-3X-X is not a trinomial as this can be simplified in to a binomial. So for an expression to be a trinomial, we have 3 terms which cannot be further simplified. The degree of the trinomial is the highest degree in the expression. If the highest degree of all variables put together is 2 then it is called quadratic and if it is 3, then it is cubic function. Factoring trinomials is complicated than factoring numbers because numbers are all like terms, which we can add , subtract, etc. Also numbers we are familiar with tables and know the divisibility rules for 2,3, 9, etc. But for expressions also we can become well-versed by continuous practice and doing exercises. Understanding the concept of factoring trinomials whenever it is of a square form, or whether +ve sign is there, or -ve sign is there, if we understand then factorization will be one step further. The advantage of trinomial is that its degree normally does not exceed 2. Hence quadratic formula we can apply if we cannot find exact splitting up of the x term.
