Perfect square formula/rules:
Trinomials are often organized like .
The <em>b</em> value in this case is <em>c</em>, and it will always equal the square of half of the <em>b</em> value.
- Perfect square trinomial:
- or
We're given:
In a trinomial, we're given the and
values. <em>a</em> in this case is 1 and <em>b</em> in this case is 4. To find the third value by dividing 4 by 2 and squaring the quotient:
- 4 ÷ 2 = 2
- 2² = 4
Therefore, the term that we can add is + 4.
To write this as the square of a bracketed expression, we can follow the rule :
