  2. common factor • An integer that is a factor • of two or more integers.

  3. factoring by grouping • A method for grouping the terms of a polynomial in such a way that the polynomial can be factored even though its greatest common factor is 1.

  4. factored form • An expression written as a product.

  5. factoring • Writing a polynomial as the product of two or more simpler polynomials.

  6. prime polynomial • A polynomial that cannot be factored using only integer coefficients.

  7. perfect square trinomial • A trinomial that can be factored as the square of a binomial.

  8. quadratic equation • An equation that can be written in the form ax2 + bx + c = 0, where a, b, and c are real numbers, with a ¹ 0.
