Divide the polygon into separate shapes. Like a rectangle and then a triangle.
find the areas of those shapes and then add them together.
Answer:
(x+1) (x-1) (x+2) (x-2)
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Let u = x^2</u>
= u^2 - 5u + 4
<u>(Factor u^2 - 5u + 4)</u>
= (u-1) (u-4)
<u>Substitute back u = x^2</u>
= (x^2 -1 ) (x^2 - 4)
<u>Factor x^2 - 1 and x^2 -4</u>
= (x+1) (x-1) (x+2) (x-2)
