Factoring Perfect Square Trinomial

This learning activity sheet provides instruction on factoring perfect square trinomials. It contains examples for students to practice factoring polynomials that can be written as the square of a binomial expression. The document includes an explanation of perfect square trinomials as the square of expressions of the form (a + b)2 or (a - b)2. Students are given problems to solve factoring various trinomials as perfect squares. They then reflect on what they found difficult or appreciated about the activity.

LEARNING ACTIVITY SHEET

Name: _______________________________ Grade and Section: _______________


Learning Area – Grade level:Mathematics 8 Date: ____________
Reference Module: Module 1c: Factoring Perfect Square Trinomial.

I. Learning Competency
MELC 1: Factor completely different types of polynomials (polynomials with common monomial factor,
difference of two squares, sum and difference of two cubes, perfect square trinomials and general
trinomials. M8AL-Ia-b-1
Specific Objectives:
 Factor Perfect Square Trinomials

a. The factors of Perfect Square Trinomials


Perfect Square Trinomial is the result of squaring a binomial. A perfect square trinomial has first and last terms which
are perfect squares and the middle term is twice the product of the first and last terms.
That is, ( a + b)2 = a2 + 2ab + b2 or ( a – b )2 = a2 – 2ab + b2

Activity 1.3Break it Perfectly


A.What is that island in Southern Leyte which marked the birth of Roman Catholicism in the
Philippines? Factor the given expressions in Column A and locate the answer in column B. Write the
corresponding letter of the answer in the boxes provided below.

Column A Column B
I 1. x2 + 14x + 49 W: ( m – 6 )2
S 2. x2 – 6x + 9 A: ( 2x + 4y)2
A 3. a2 + 8a + 16 I: ( x + 7 )2
M 4.a2 – 2a + 1 S: ( x – 3 )2
W 5.m2 – 12m + 36 A: ( a + 4 )2
A 6.m2 + 6m + 9 L: ( 3x + 2)2
L 7.9x2 + 12x + 4 A: ( m + 3 )2
A 8.4x2 + 16xy + 16y2 M: ( a – 1 )2

L I M A S A W A
7 1 4 3 2 8 5 6

B.Factor the following polynomials.


1. 36 + 12m + m2
m2 = m ● m
36 = 6 ● 6
6m ● 6m = 12m
36 + 12m + m2 = (6 + m)2

2.16d2 -24d + 9
16d2 = 4d ● 4d
9 = -3 ● -3
-12d ● -12d = -24d
16d2 -24d + 9 = (4d - 3)2
3. a4b2 – 6a2bc + 9c2
a4b2 = a2b ● a2b
9c2 = -3c ● -3c
-3 a2bc ● -3 a2bc = -6 a2bc
a4b2 – 6a2bc + 9c2= (a2b2 – 3c)2

4. 1/16x2+1/3x + 4/9
1/16x2 = 1/4x ● 1/4x
4/9 = -2/3 ● -2/3
-1/6x ● -1/6x = -2/6x = 1/3x
1/16x2+1/3x + 4/9= (1/4x – 2/3)2

5. 18h2 + 12h + 2
= 2 (9h2 + 6h + 1)
9h2 = 3h ● 3h
1 = 1●1
3h ● 3h = 6h
= 2 (3h + 1)2
