KEY CONCEPTS:

Factoring trinomials in the form of x^2+bx+c

i.) Find SUM-PRODUCT: ac-value and b-value
ii.) Square root x^2 value and open up a set of binomial brackets
iii.) Write x (or whatever variable is squared as your trinomials first term) as your first term in both brackets
iv.) Write your SUM-PRODUCT numbers as the second variables in each set of binomials
