About This Lesson
http://www.freemathvideos.com In this video tutorial I show you how to factor a trinomial when a is greater than one. We do this by either guess and check or using the diamond to find two values that multiply to give us a*c and add to give us b. We then use those two values and either finish factoring by using the box method or factoring by grouping. We can then check our answer by multiplying back our two binomials. This math problem was filmed during online live instruction for class. This is my way of providing a free tutorial for students that want to learn math from an online tutor. Please visit my website listed above where you can view all of my math lessons. Every video is a short clip that shows exactly how to solve math problems step by step. The problems are done in real time and in front of a live classroom. These videos are intended to help you learn how to solve math problems, review how to solve math problems, study for a test, finish your homework and get a better grade in your math class.
