factor (x+2)^2-36

Solution

factor

(x + 2)^{2} - 36

Solution

(x + 8) (x - 4)

Solution steps

(x + 2)^{2} - 36

Factor the number:

36 = 6^{2}

= (x + 2)^{2} - 6^{2}

Apply Difference of Two Squares Formula:

x^{2} - y^{2} = (x + y) (x - y)

(x + 2)^{2} - 6^{2} = ((x + 2) + 6) ((x + 2) - 6)

= ((x + 2) + 6) ((x + 2) - 6)

Simplify

((x + 2) + 6) ((x + 2) - 6) : (x + 8) (x - 4)

= (x + 8) (x - 4)
