This site discusses factoring of polynomials, giving a general definition, and many links to satisfy unfamiliar terminology. There are however very few examples.

This activity is designed to give students practice in "finding" the correct factors to use when attempting to factor a trinomial. The students are provided with a Tic-Tac sheet to help them discover the relationship or pattern between...

WyzAnt provides color coded examples for the foil method of factoring.

These easy to follow examples demonstrate how to factor algebraic expression using GCF and difference of squares.

College professor Dan Bach offers a review of various basic topics in arithmetic, pre-algebra, and algebra. Order of operations, exponents, square roots, variables, and combining terms are just a few of the many topics covered.

This S.O.S. tutorial gives students a basic review of simple fractions. Follow the tutorial to refresh your skills involving simple fraction manipulations. Each section contains problems with links to the answers.

The resource consists of a worksheet, answer sheet, and example problem on factoring trinomials.

The resource consists of a worksheet, answer sheet, and example problem on factoring expressions as a difference between two squares.

Students review factoring a greatest common factor from an expression. The handout consists of an example and answer sheet.

In this exercise, students practice factoring numerical expressions using the distributive property. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to get hints and try questions repeatedly.

A quadratic equation is an equation that can be written on the standard form ax^2 + bx + c = 0, where a is not = 0. One way of solving a quadratic equation is by factoring. Another way of solving a quadratic equation is to solve it...

A tutorial on quadratics presents topics including: factoring and solving quadratics, graphing quadratic functions, using completing the square and the quadratic formula to solve functions, the discriminant and conjugates. Plenty of...

This CoolMath resource reviews the ways to solve quadratic equations: factoring, finding square roots, and using the quadratic formula.

This CoolMath resource will help students solve quadratic equations with a square roots trick instead of through factoring.

This tutorial demonstrates how to factor the GCF out of a polynomial expression. An online worksheet is provided for extra practice.

The calculator factors expressions by expanding and combining like terms, dividing a greatest common factor, and identifying between two squares or factorable trinomials. An example expression and quick-start guide are included.

Factor quadratic expressions of the general difference of squares form. The factored expressions have the general form (ax+b)(ax-b). Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to try questions repeatedly, watch a video...

In Spanish. Clear step by step directions, explanations and example problems of quadratic equations. Explains factorization, the quadratic formula, and completing the square.

This resource is about factorizing trinomials of the form x^2+bx+c by making them into a product of two binomials x^2+bx+c=(x+m)(x+n) where m+n=b and m*n=c

You can factor polynomials of the form ax^2 + bx + c. If a is positive, then ax^2+bx+c=(x+m)(ax+n) where c = m*n, a*c = p*q and b = p+q = a*m + n
