Square Roots & Cube Roots
A number b is a square root
of a number a if b2 = a
A number b is a cube root
of a number a if b3 = a
25 = 5 since 52 = 25
3
Notice that 25 breaks down into 5 • 5
So, 25 = 5 • 5
Notice that 8 breaks down into
3
2 • 2 • 2 So, 8 = 2 • 2 • 2
See a ‘group of 2’ -> bring it outside the
radical (square root sign).
See a ‘group of 3’ –> bring it outside
the radical (the cube root sign)
Example: 200 = 2 • 100
= 2 • 10 • 10
= 10 2
Note: -25 is not a real number since no
number multiplied by itself will be negative
8 = 2 since 23 = 8
3

Example: 200 = 2 • 100
3
= 2 • 10 • 10

= 2 • 5 • 2 • 5 • 2

= 2 • 2 • 2 • 5 • 5

Note: -8
IS a real number (-2) since

5.5 & 5.6: Review: Factoring
Polynomials
To factor a number such as 10, find
out
‘what times what’ = 10
10 = 5(2)
To factor a polynomial, follow a similar process.
Factor: 3x4 – 9x3 +12x2
3x2 (x2 – 3x + 4)
Another Example:
Factor 2x(x + 1) + 3 (x + 1)
(x + 1)(2x + 3)
Solving Polynomial Equations By
Factoring
Zero Product Property : If AB = 0 then A = 0 or B = 0
Solve the Equation: 2x2 + x = 0
Step 1: Factor
x (2x + 1) = 0
Step 2: Zero Product
x = 0 or
2x + 1 = 0
Step 3: Solve for X
x = 0 or
x= -½
Question: Why are there 2 values for x???
Factoring Trinomials
To factor a trinomial means to find 2 binomials whose product
gives you the trinomial back again.
Consider the expression: x2 – 7x + 10
The factored form is:
(x – 5) (x – 2)
Using FOIL, you can multiply the 2 binomials and
see that the product gives you the original trinomial expression.
How to find the factors of a trinomial:
Step 1: Write down 2 parentheses pairs.
Step 2: Do the FIRSTS
Step3 : Do the SIGNS
Step4: Generate factor pairs for LASTS
Step5: Use trial and error and check with FOIL
Practice
Factor:
1. y2 + 7y –30
2.
10x2 +3x –18
3. 8k2 + 34k +35
4. –15a2 –70a + 120
5. 3m4 + 6m3 –27m2
6. x2 + 10x + 25
5.7 Special Types of Factoring
Square Minus a Square
A2 – B2 = (A + B) (A – B)
Cube minus Cube and Cube plus a Cube
(A3 – B3) = (A – B) (A2 + AB + B2)
(A3 + B3) = (A + B) (A2 - AB + B2)
Perfect Squares
A2 + 2AB + B2 = (A + B)2
A2 – 2AB + B2 = (A – B)2

2. Apply zero product principle (If AB = 0 then A = 0 or B = 0)
3. Quadratic Formula (We will do this one later)
Example1:
x2 – 7x + 10 = 0
(x – 5) (x – 2) = 0
x – 5 = 0 or x – 2 = 0
+5 +5
+2 +2
x = 5
or
x= 2
Example 2:
4x2 – 2x = 0
2x (2x –1) = 0
2x=0 or 2x-1=0
2 2
+1 +1
2x=1
x = 0 or x=1/2
Solving Higher Degree Equations
x3 = 4x
2x3 + 2x2 - 12x = 0
x3 - 4x = 0
x (x2 – 4) = 0
x (x – 2)(x + 2) = 0
2x (x2 + x – 6) = 0
x=0
2x (x + 3) (x – 2) = 0
x–2=0 x+2=0
2x = 0 or
x + 3 = 0 or x – 2 = 0
x=2
x=0
x = -3 or
x = -2
or
x=2
Solving By Grouping
x3 – 5x2 – x + 5 = 0
(x3 – 5x2) + (-x + 5) = 0
x2 (x – 5) – 1 (x – 5) = 0
(x – 5)(x2 – 1) = 0
(x – 5)(x – 1) (x + 1) = 0
x–5=0
