This CoolMath resource provides a review of factoring polynomials and an introduction to factoring exponents that are fractions.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Learn how to factor polynomials completely.

All equations are composed of polynomials. If you know how to solve equations containing polynomials of the first degree, then you can solve equations of higher degree. One way to solve a polynomial equation is to use the zero-product...

This WebMath online tool is useful for factoring polynomials by finding the greatest common factor. Simply plug the numbers in and you are on your way!

Factor complex polynomials (i.e. polynomials of various degrees and or with two variables) using special product factorization methods. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to try questions repeatedly, watch a...

Students will be given binomials to multiply or trinomials to factor. The teacher will enter the binomials/trinomial into activity center and students must send in other form. Correct answers should match teacher graph.

The process of factoring is essential to the simplification of many algebraic expressions and is a useful tool in solving higher degree equations. In fact, the process of factoring is so important that very little of algebra beyond this...

Demonstrates the steps involved in solving a general polynomial, including how to use the Rational Roots Test and synthetic division. Points out when using a graphing calculator can be very helpful.

Demonstrates how to use the formula for finding the differences of squares, and warns against trying to factor a sum of squares.

Learn to simplify rational expressions using factoring. Includes a short video [1:37] and a practice problem in a slideshow.

This lesson takes a look at the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra. It gives information on solving multiplicity of roots and quadratic polynomials. Also gives a brief history and provides some learning exercises to practice.

Here is a site that clearly and thoroughly explains quadratic functions, including graphing functions and solving equations using factoring. There are example problems solved, problems for the student to attempt, and answers to the...
