This week we learned how to factor “ugly” trinomials. These are trinomials that you cannot use that pattern to factor. The pattern is that one of the factors off the last term would add to the middle term. For ugly triennials this is not the case. At first I struggled a bit with this new concept, from knowing when to use it, toactually factoring it and knowing if its right. I was going to go early to math to get extra hep but i was determined to teach and figure stout myself. Here is the method I use to factor these trinomials that you can’t use the pattern for. And also how to know when you can’t use the pattern and how to check if its correct.
