Curated OER
Factoring Trinomials
Students factor trinomials and quadratics. In this algebra lesson plan, students solve quadratics when the leading coefficient is one. They use a special factoring pattern to solve the trinomial.

Factoring for Zeros
Relate factors to zeros and x-intercepts. Scholars first graph quadratics in both standard and factored forms to see that they are the same. They go on to use the graphs to see the relationship between factors and x-intercepts.
