Students' Learning Outcomes

At the end of the unit, the students will be able to:

• Identify common factors, trinomial factoring, concretely, pictorially and symbolically.
• Factorize quadratic and cubic algebraic expressions:
  • $a^4 + a^2b^2 + b^4$ or $a^4 + b^4$
  • $ax^2 + bx + c$
  • $(x + a)(x + b)(x + c)(x + d) + k$
  • $(ax^2 + bx + c)(ax^2 + bx + d) + k$
  • $a^3 + 3a^2b + 3ab^2 + b^3$
  • $a^3 - 3a^2b + 3ab^2 - b^3$
  • $a^3 \pm b^3$
• Find highest common factor and least common multiple of algebraic expressions and know relationship of LCM and HCF.
• Find square root of algebraic expression by factorization and division.
• Apply the concepts of factorization of quadratic and cubic algebraic expression to real-world problems (such as engineering, physics, and finance.)
