Lesson Plan 1: The X Factor - Trinomials and Algebra Tiles

Overview:
This lesson will teach students to factor trinomial expressions of the form x² + bx + c. Students will use algebra tiles to identify the binomial factors and the graphing calculator to verify the result. In addition, students will identify the x-intercepts and y-intercepts of each trinomial function and explore relationships between the trinomial x² + bx + c and its factored form
(x + m)(x + n).

Time Allotment:
One 50-minute class period

Subject Matter:
Factoring

Learning Objectives:
Students will be able to:

Factor trinomials of the form x² + bx + c into two binomial factors.
Identify the relationships that exist between b, c, m, and n when x² + bx + c is factored as (x + m)(x + n).

Standards:
