Area, Perimeter, Factoring & Distributive Property

Front

What is the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle?

Back

Perimeter = 2(length + width)

Front

Factor: 10x + 15

Back

5(2x + 3)

Front

What does it mean to factor an expression?

Back

Factoring an expression means to break it down into simpler components that, when multiplied together, give the original expression.

Front

Factor the following binomial: 2a + 10

Back

2(a + 5)

Front

What is the distributive property?

Back

The distributive property states that a(b + c) = ab + ac.

Front

Calculate the perimeter of a square with side length x.

Back

Perimeter = 4x

Front

Factor completely: 6x + -3

Back

3(2x - 1)

Front

What is the area of a rectangle?

Back

Area = length × width
