As you become more familiar with factoring, you will notice there are some special factoring problems that follow specific patterns. These patterns are known as: a difference of squares; a perfect square trinomial; a difference of cubes; and a sum of cubes. Choose two of the forms above and explain the pattern that allows you to recognize the binomial or trinomial as having special factors. Illustrate with examples of a binomial or trinomial expression that may be factored using the special techniques you are explaining. Make sure that you do not use the same example a classmate has already used!
