NO!!!
x^2 + 1 = x^2 + 1^2 . This does NOT factor!!!!!
Remember , two squared terms with a positive between them, does NOT factor. However, two squared terms with a negative between them does factor.
e.g.
x^2 - 1^2 = ( x + 1)(x - 1) Note the change of signs inside the brackets.
So taking the Pythagorean equation ; a^2 + b^2 = c^2,, this does NOT factor. However, algebraically rearranging we have a^2 = c^2 - b^2 does factor to
a^2 = (c - b)(c + b)
