Which of the following is NOT a method of factoring mentioned in the video?

• Perfect Squares or Cubes

• Synthetic Division

• Grouping

• Guess and Check

In the guess and check method, what is the first step when factoring a trinomial?

• Find the greatest common factor

• Set up the basic structure with parentheses

• Multiply the first and last terms

• Check the middle term

What should you do if the guess and check method does not yield the correct middle term?

• Try a different method

• Switch the order of factors

• Use a calculator

• Add more terms

When using the grouping method, what is the first step?

• Check for perfect squares

• Multiply the first and last terms

• Group the first two terms

• Find the greatest common factor of all terms

In the grouping method, what do you do after factoring out the greatest common factor from each group?

• Add the factors together

• Multiply the factors

• Pull out the common binomial factor

• Divide the factors

What condition must be met to use the difference of squares formula?

• The terms must be subtracted

• The terms must be added

• The terms must be divided

• The terms must be multiplied

Which of the following is a perfect square?

• 9x^2

• 11x^2

• 8x^2

• 10x^2

What is the first sign in the sum of cubes formula?

• Undefined

• Zero

• Positive

• Negative

How do the signs change in the difference of cubes formula?

• All signs are negative

• First sign is negative, then it flips, last is positive

• First sign is positive, then all negative

• All signs are positive

What should you pay attention to when using the perfect cubes formulas?

• The coefficients of the terms

• The signs of the terms

• The exponents of the terms

• The number of terms
