Best Answer

A factor of a perfect square trinomial is either

  • a number that is a factor of each term of the trinomial,
  • a binomial that is a factor of the trinomial, or
  • a product of the above two.

For example, consider 4x2 + 8x + 4

It has the factors

2 or 4,

(x + 1) or

2x+2 = 2*(x+1) or 4x+4 = 4*(x+1)

A definition of a perfect square trinomial?

A perfect square trinomial is looking for compatible factors that would fit in the last term when multiplied and in the second term if added/subtracted (considering the signs of each polynomials).* * * * *A simpler answer is: write the trinomial in the form ax2 + bx + c. Then, if b2 = 4ac, it is a perfect square.


What is a perfect square trinomial and how is it factored?

A trinomial of the form ax2 + bx + c is a perfect square if (and only if) b2-4ac = 0 and, in that case, it is factored into a*(x + b/2a)2
