Solve by factoring when a is greater than one

The video tutorial explains how to solve quadratic equations by factoring, specifically using the box method. It begins with checking for common factors and setting the equation to zero. The box method is introduced as a visual tool to represent expressions as areas, facilitating the identification of factors. The tutorial guides through finding factors that multiply and add to specific values, using visual representation to determine side lengths of the box. Finally, the equation is solved by applying the zero product property, yielding the solutions.
