9-12.A.SSE.2 - Interpret the structure of expressions

Mon, 07/17/2017 - 20:15 -- editor

Use the structure of an expression to identify ways to rewrite it. For example, see x^4 – y^4 as (x^2)^2 – (y^2)^2, thus recognizing it as a difference of squares that can be factored as (x^2 – y^2)(x^2 + y^2).
