Can you tell us the dimensions of the trapezoid so we can help you?
Answer:
x^2 -x -2 = (x -2)(x +1)
Step-by-step explanation:
To factor x^2 -x -2, you look for factors of -2 that have a sum of -1:
-2 = (-1)(2) = (1)(-2) . . . . . the latter pair has a sum of -1
Then these are the constants in the binomial factors:
x^2 -x -2 = (x +1)(x -2)

<em>Comment on the question</em>
The fact that x^2 +3x -4 is modeled with algebra tiles seems to be irrelevant to the question that is actually asked.
16 • (x^2 + 2y^4) • (x^2 - 2y^4)
1^6 is just 1 so 1x=2, you can just take away the one because it is a given that if there is an x there is a 1, so the answer is x=2
