Intro

- Hi, welcome to this question right here. So, there is a formula for some questions, but, you know, what? For example on your test or quizzes you probably have to do a lot of questions before you can actually recognize that this one here is actually solvable by the formulas, okay? But if you go ahead and actually do this is what's gonna happen, okay? So you're just gonna have the bracket like this and the square on top ready to go. So the x right here is done. X squared is x squared, right? What about this number right here, okay? This number here is just a square root of this number here. So root of 36, what is that? 
Six. So just put a 6 down right here, okay? Now, before you even think about the negative sign right here, it's gonna be a 
- 6. This sign here corresponds to this sign, okay? Now you just have to check. How do you check? You're gonna do the math in your head really quickly. So x square is x square. X x -6 x 2 is -12x. Which is correct, okay? Then this -6 square is still positive 36. So this is what they're looking for, but the problem is you have to recognize that this is one of the possible questions for that. If you can't see it, then you're gonna have to try the regular trinomial factoring, okay? 
Which might take a little while, but you're still gonna get the same answer correct, okay? Thanks for watching.

Some polynomials have common patterns, which can be factorized faster if you can recognize them. Perfect square trinomial is one of these cases. 

Factoring perfect square trinomials: (a + b)^2 = a^2 + 2ab + b^2 or (a - b)^2 = a^2 - 2ab + b^2
