Chapter 5 - Factoring

Sec5.1	Section5.1-Factoring Polynomials	1.  Be able to determine the common monomial factor in a polynomial, if one exists.
Sec5.2	Section5.2-Difference of Squares and Perfect Square Trinomials	2.  Given the difference of two squares, write the factored form.
		3.  Given a perfect square trinomial, state the factors.
Sec5.3	Section5.3-Factoring Trinomials of the Type…	4.  Factor a trinomial of the type x squared + bx + c, if it is factorable.
Sec5.4	Section5.4-Factoring Trinomials of the Type…	5.  Factor a trinomial of the type ax squared + bx + c, if it is factorable.
Sec5.5	Section5.5-A Strategy for Factoring Completely	6.  Factor a polynomial by grouping terms.
		7.  Use a strategy for factoring a trinomial.
Sec5.6	Section5.6-Solving Equations by Factoring	8.  Solve equations by applying the principle:  If the product of two or more factors is equal to 0, then at least one of the factors is zero.
Sec5.7	Section5.7-Applications	9.  Solve word problems that utilize factoring the difference of squares or factoring a trinomial to find the solution.
Sec5.8	Section5.8-Factoring the Sum and Difference of Two Cubes	10.  Factor the difference of two cubes.
		11.  Factor the sum of two cubes.
