Application of various methods of factoring a polynomial. Lesson "Application of various methods of factorization of polynomials". Factorization of a square trinomial. Example

The factorization of polynomials is identity transformation, as a result of which the polynomial is transformed into the product of several factors - polynomials or monomials.

There are several ways to factorize polynomials.

Method 1. Bracketing the common factor.

This transformation is based on the distributive law of multiplication: ac + bc = c(a + b). The essence of the transformation is to single out the common factor in the two components under consideration and “put it out” of the brackets.

Let us factorize the polynomial 28x 3 - 35x 4.

Decision.

1. We find a common divisor for elements 28x3 and 35x4. For 28 and 35 it will be 7; for x 3 and x 4 - x 3. In other words, our common factor is 7x3.

2. We represent each of the elements as a product of factors, one of which
7x 3: 28x 3 - 35x 4 \u003d 7x 3 ∙ 4 - 7x 3 ∙ 5x.

3. Bracketing the common factor
7x 3: 28x 3 - 35x 4 \u003d 7x 3 ∙ 4 - 7x 3 ∙ 5x \u003d 7x 3 (4 - 5x).

Method 2. Using abbreviated multiplication formulas. The "mastery" of mastering this method is to notice in the expression one of the formulas for abbreviated multiplication.

Let us factorize the polynomial x 6 - 1.

Decision.

1 TO given expression we can apply the difference of squares formula. To do this, we represent x 6 as (x 3) 2, and 1 as 1 2, i.e. 1. The expression will take the form:
(x 3) 2 - 1 \u003d (x 3 + 1) ∙ (x 3 - 1).

2. To the resulting expression, we can apply the formula for the sum and difference of cubes:
(x 3 + 1) ∙ (x 3 - 1) \u003d (x + 1) ∙ (x 2 - x + 1) ∙ (x - 1) ∙ (x 2 + x + 1).

So,
x 6 - 1 = (x 3) 2 - 1 = (x 3 + 1) ∙ (x 3 - 1) = (x + 1) ∙ (x 2 - x + 1) ∙ (x - 1) ∙ (x 2 + x + 1).

Method 3. Grouping. The grouping method consists in combining the components of a polynomial in such a way that it is easy to perform operations on them (addition, subtraction, taking out a common factor).

We factorize the polynomial x 3 - 3x 2 + 5x - 15.

Decision.

1. Group the components in this way: the 1st with the 2nd, and the 3rd with the 4th
(x 3 - 3x 2) + (5x - 15).

2. In the resulting expression, we take the common factors out of brackets: x 2 in the first case and 5 in the second.
(x 3 - 3x 2) + (5x - 15) \u003d x 2 (x - 3) + 5 (x - 3).

3. We take out the common factor x - 3 and get:
x 2 (x - 3) + 5 (x - 3) \u003d (x - 3) (x 2 + 5).

So,
x 3 - 3x 2 + 5x - 15 \u003d (x 3 - 3x 2) + (5x - 15) \u003d x 2 (x - 3) + 5 (x - 3) \u003d (x - 3) ∙ (x 2 + 5 ).

Let's fix the material.

Factor the polynomial a 2 - 7ab + 12b 2 .

Decision.

1. We represent the monomial 7ab as the sum 3ab + 4ab. The expression will take the form:
a 2 - (3ab + 4ab) + 12b 2 .

Let's open the brackets and get:
a 2 - 3ab - 4ab + 12b 2 .

2. Group the components of the polynomial in this way: the 1st with the 2nd and the 3rd with the 4th. We get:
(a 2 - 3ab) - (4ab - 12b 2).

3. Let's take out the common factors:
(a 2 - 3ab) - (4ab - 12b 2) \u003d a (a - 3b) - 4b (a - 3b).

4. Let's take out the common factor (a - 3b):
a(a – 3b) – 4b(a – 3b) = (a – 3b) ∙ (a – 4b).

So,
a 2 - 7ab + 12b 2 =
= a 2 - (3ab + 4ab) + 12b 2 =
= a 2 - 3ab - 4ab + 12b 2 =
= (a 2 - 3ab) - (4ab - 12b 2) =
= a(a - 3b) - 4b(a - 3b) =
= (а – 3 b) ∙ (а – 4b).

Learning new material. To factorize polynomials, we used parentheses, grouping, and abbreviated multiplication formulas. Sometimes it is possible to factorize a polynomial by applying successively several methods. You should start the transformation, if possible, by taking the common factor out of brackets. In order to successfully solve such examples, today we will try to develop a plan for their consistent application.

Exist several different ways factorization of a polynomial. Most often, in practice, not one, but several methods are used at once. There can be no specific order of actions here, in each example everything is individual. But you can try to follow the following order:

1. If there is a common factor, then take it out of the bracket;

2. After that, try to factorize the polynomial using the abbreviated multiplication formulas;

3. If after that we have not yet received the desired result, we should try to use the grouping method.

Abbreviated multiplication formulas

1. a^2 - b^2 = (a+b)*(a-b);

2. (a+b)^2 = a^2+2*a*b+b^2;

3. (a-b)^2 = a^2-2*a*b+b^2;

4. a^3+b^3 = (a+b)*(a^2 - a*b+b^2);

5. a^3 - b^3 = (a-b)*(a^2 + a*b+b^2);

Now let's take a look at a few examples:

Example 1

Factorize the polynomial: (a^2+1)^2 - 4*a^2

First, we apply the abbreviated multiplication formula "difference of squares" and open the inner brackets.

(a^2+1)^2 - 4*a^2 = ((a^2+1)-2*a)*((a^2+1)+2*a) = (a^2+1 -2*a)*(a^2+1+2*a);

Note that the expressions for the square of the sum and the square of the difference of two expressions are obtained in brackets. Apply them and get the answer.

a^2+1-2*a)*(a^2+1+2*a) = (a-1)^2*(a+1)^2;

Answer:(a-1)^2*(a+1)^2;

Example 2

Factorize the polynomial 4*x^2 - y^2 + 4*x +2*y.

As you can see directly here, none of the methods is suitable. But there are two squares, they can be grouped. Let's try.

4*x^2 - y^2 + 4*x +2*y = (4*x^2 - y^2) +(4*x +2*y);

We got the formula for the difference of squares in the first bracket, And in the second bracket there is a common factor of two. Let's apply the formula and take out the common factor.

(4*x^2 - y^2) +(4*x +2*y)= (2*x - y)*(2*x+y) +2*(2*x+y);

It can be seen that two identical brackets are obtained. We take them out as a common factor.

(2*x - y)*(2*x+y) +2*(2*x+y) = (2*x+y)*(2*x - y)+2)= (2*x+ y)*(2*x-y+2);

Answer:(2*x+y)*(2*x-y+2);

As you can see, there is no universal way. With experience, the skill will come and factoring the polynomial into factors will be very easy.
