Every difference of squares problem can be factored as follows: a2 – b2 = (a + b)(a – b) or (a – b)(a + b). So, all you need to do to factor these types of problems is to determine what numbers squares will produce the desired results.
expression x^2-7 be rewritten using Difference of Squares
x^2 -(sqrt(7))^2
150; because 6-11 is almost 180, but it’s not quite there, so it’s a little less
