Factoring Quadratic Functions: Finding Zeros of Difference of Two Squares

This video tutorial explains how to identify the zeros of a quadratic function that is a difference of two squares by factoring. It begins with an introduction to the concept of difference of squares, followed by a detailed example of factoring a quadratic function. The tutorial then demonstrates how to find the zeros of the function and interpret them graphically. Additional examples are provided, along with common mistakes to avoid when factoring and finding zeros.
