This guide covers essential factorization techniques for quadratic expressions, including finding the greatest common factor, utilizing the difference of squares, and factoring trinomials. It explores methods such as the Hoffman Method for expressions of the form ax² + bx + c and gives examples like 2x² + 3x and x² + 7x + 12. Understanding these concepts is crucial for solving quadratic equations and simplifying mathematical expressions. Homework exercises are included to reinforce learning, with specific problems designed to practice the techniques discussed.
