Mastering Factoring Identities: Key Algebraic Formulas
Factoring Identities
These identities form the backbone of algebraic manipulation. Mastering them speeds up solving equations and simplifies expressions.
Difference of Squares: a2 – b2 = (a + b)(a – b)
Perfect Square (Sum): a2 + 2ab + b2 = (a + b)2
Perfect Square (Difference): a2 – 2ab + b2 = (a – b)2
Sum of Cubes: a3 + b3 = (a + b)(a2 – ab + b2)
Difference of Cubes: a3 – b3 = (a – b)(a2 + ab + b2)
Binomial Expansion – (a + b)3: a3 + 3a2b + 3ab2 + b3
Binomial Expansion – (a – b)3: a3 – 3a2b + 3ab2 – b3
