Factor this polynomial: x^2 + 6x + 9
(x+3)(x+3)
(x-3) (x-3)
(x-3) (x+3)
(x+3) (x-3)

(x+3)(x+3)

Step-by-step explanation:

1) this polynomial is in the form of ax^2+bx+c

c=9

b=6

a=1

what*what=c(9)

and what+what=b(6)

3 is the answer to both questions:

now substitute "3x" in place of "6"

x^2+3x+3x+9

split in 2 groups:

group a) (x^2+3x)

gcf of group a=x

x(x+3)

group b) (3x+9)

gcf of group b=3

3(x+3)

combine the numbers OUTSIDE the parantheses

so

(x+3)(x+3)

step-by-step explanation:

angle addition postulate

2x=56
