The sum of two squares cannot be factored.
If that's -a^2 + b^2, that's b^2 - a^2, which factors to (b - a)(b + a)

(b-c)(a+b)-ac
If you're solving for b, then you use the quadratic formula to factor out b. In this case, b= -1/4 or -18/12
2(5c + 2d)(5c + 2d)
you use A squared plus B squared equals C squared
(a + 2 - b) (a + 2 + b)
(a+b)(3b+1)
(b + 8)(b + 4)
(b + 4)(b + 4)
(a + x^2)(b + y^2)
(b + 2c)(b - c)
4
(b + 8)(b - 1)
6
a^(2) - b^(2) + ac - bc Factor ( a - b)( a + b) + c(a - b) Factor further (a - b)(a + b + c) Done!!!!!
Remember to factor out the GCF of the coefficients if there is one. A perfect square binomial will always follow the pattern a squared plus or minus 2ab plus b squared. If it's plus 2ab, that factors to (a + b)(a + b) If it's minus 2ab, that factors to (a - b)(a - b)
(b-c)(a+b)-ac
