How do i factor the difference of two squares

Step-by-step explanation: If a variable is taken to an even power, that variable is a perfect square.

In this case, would therefore be a perfect square.

Since 16 is also a perfect square, what we

have here is the difference of two squares.

That can be factored as the product of two binomials,

one with a plus and one with a minus.

First ask yourself what are the factors of that are the same.

The rule is that those factors will use one-half

of the exponent on the original.

So the factors of that are the same are and

We place these in the first position of each binomial.

The factors of 16 that are the same are 4 and 4.

So our answer is .
