Factorisation When a Binomial is Common
Method of Factorisation
Step-1: Find the common binomial.
Step-2: Write the given expression as the product of this binomial and the quotient obtained on dividing the given expression by this binomial.
Factorise: (i) 5a (2x 3y) + 2b (2x 3y), (ii) 8 (4x + 5y) – 12 (4x + 5y)
we have:
(i) 5a (2x 3y) + 2b (2x 3y) = (2x 3y) (5a + 2b).
(ii) 8x (4x + 5y) – 12 (4x + 5y) = 4 (4x + 5y) {2(4x + 5y) – 3} = 4(4x + 5y) (8x + 10y – 3).
Factorisation by Grouping
Something the terms of the given expression need to be arranged in suitable groups in such a way that all the groups have a common factor. After this arrangement factorisation becomes easy.
Method for Group Factorisation
Step-1: Arrange the terms of the given expression in groups in such a way that all the groups have a common factor.
Step-2: Factorise each group.
Step-3: Take out the factor which is common to all such groups.
Factorise: (i) a² + bc + ab + ac, (ii) ax² + by² + bx² + ay²
By suitably rearranging the terms, we have:
(i) a + bc + ab + ac = a + ab + ac + bc
= a(a + b) + c (a + b)
= (a + b) (a + c)
(ii) ax² + by² + bx² + ay² = ax² + ay² + bx² + by²
= a(x² + y²) + b(x² + y²)
= (x² + y²) (a + b)
What are Binomials in math?
In algebra, a binomial is a polynomial that is the sum of two terms, each of which is a monomial. It is the simplest kind of polynomial after the monomials.
What is the importance of factoring polynomials in our daily life?
The purpose of factoring such functions is to then be able to solve equations of polynomials. For example, the solution to x^2 + 5x + 4 = 0 are the roots of x^2 + 5x + 4, namely, -1 and -4. Being able to find the roots of such polynomials is basic to solving problems in science classes in the following 2 to 3 years.
How do you do common factorization?
To factorise an algebraic expression, take out the highest common factor and place it in front of the brackets. Then the expression inside the brackets is obtained by dividing each term by the highest common factor.
