Students sometimes carry out factorising quadratic expressions by applying poorly-understood procedures that make little mathematical sense to them. This can be especially so when it comes to ...

For tips on how to do this, look at Factorising quadratics and Factorisation of further quadratics in this guide. For (\({x}\) + 2)(\({x}\) + 7) to equal 0 either the first or second bracket must be ...

Sometimes we have to form quadratic equations to help us solve problems. Dave has a box which has one side of length (\({x}\) – 3) and another side of length (\({x}\) + 2). Find an expression for the ...

This free eight-page, exam-style factoring quadratics worksheet is from Maths Genie. When learners are bored in maths lessons they sometimes ask, “When will we ever actually use this?”. But even ...
