Just this time, we are going to look for the constant term in the polynomials instead. The trick is to reverse the process of FOIL so that we can convert the trinomials into two binomials.Prerequisites Prime factorizationMultiplying binomial by binomialRelated Factor by taking out the greatest common factorFactor by groupingFactoring difference of squares: x^2 - y^2Factoring trinomials
