Recognizing these patterns allows for systematic factorization. --- ### Question 2 2.1.1 \( x^{2}+2xy+y^{2} \) This is a perfect square trinomial: \[ x^{2}+2xy+y^{2} = (x+y)^{2} \] 2.1.2 \( x^{2}-8x+16 \) This is also a perfect square trinomial: \[ x^{2}-8x+16 = (x-4)^{2} \] 2.1.3 \( 16 a^{4}-24 a^{2} b^{3}+9 b^{6} \) This can be factored as: \[ 16 a^{4}-24 a^{2} b^{3}+9 b^{6} = (3b^{3}-4a^{2})^{2} \] ### General Statement for Question 2 Identifying perfect square trinomials is key in factorization.

To fully factorise \( x^{2}-y^{2} \), you can use the difference of squares identity, yielding \( (x-y)(x+y) \). For \( 625 a^{4}-81 b^{8} \), recognizing it as another difference of squares gives \( (25 a^{2}-9 b^{4})(25 a^{2}+9 b^{4}) \), which factors further into \( (5a - 3b^2)(5a + 3b^2)(25a^2 + 9b^4) \). Lastly, for \( 4(x-y)^{2}-9(x+y)^{2} \), you can express it as a difference of squares: \( (2(x-y) - 3(x+y))(2(x-y) + 3(x+y)) \). To generalize, factorisation often involves recognizing patterns such as the difference of squares, perfect squares, or sums of cubes. Simplifying polynomials typically means breaking them down into simpler monomials or binomials using identities or common factors. Always ensure to check if further factorisation is possible! In the next set, \( x^{2}+2xy+y^{2} \) can be factored as \( (x+y)^{2} \), while \( x^{2}-8x+16 \) is a perfect square: \( (x-4)^{2} \). For \( 16 a^{4}-24 a^{2} b^{3}+9 b^{6} \), this can be recognized and factored as \( (4 a^{2} - 3 b^{3})^{2} \). A good way to remember how to factor is to look for structures like perfect squares, sums/differences of cubes, and deploy techniques like grouping or using the quadratic formula. This will refine your skill in polynomial factorisation! For the third part, \( x^{3}+y^{3} \) can be factored using the formula for the sum of cubes: \( (x+y)(x^{2}-xy+y^{2}) \). The expression \( 8 a^{6}+729 \) also follows suit with the sum of cubes giving \( (2a^{2}+9)(4a^{4}-18a^{2}+81) \). Finally, \( (3x+y)^{3}+(3x-y)^{3} \) can be tackled using the sum of cubes formula resulting in \( (3x)^2 - y^2)(3x+y)(3x-y) \). As a rule of thumb, always identify if you're dealing with cubes or squares, as those patterns are key in factorisation. Practice makes perfect, so keep challenging yourself with different expressions!
