Factorising Quadratics: Non-Monic

The video tutorial explains how to factorize non-monic quadratics, starting with a trial and error method and then introducing a fail-safe method that avoids guesswork. The fail-safe method involves multiplying the coefficient of the x squared term with the constant, listing factors, and rewriting the quadratic. The video also covers an alternative approach and provides practice problems for students to apply the methods learned. The tutorial concludes with tips for ensuring correct factorization and encourages regular practice.
