Find the factors for
Solution:
Consider the given equation above
The first and the last terms are both perfect squares. The middle term is twice the product of the square roots of first and last terms. Let's check the middle term as follows
Since the middle term is exactly the same as the computation above, then the given trinomial is a perfect trinomial square. If the middle term is negative, then the square root of the last term must be negative. Therefore, the factors are
Therefore, the factors are
