...arranged according to the powers of any letter in it, and if, in that form, the second term is equal to twice the product of the square roots of the first and third terms, then that trinominal is the square of a binominal formed by connecting the roots of the first andthird... | |

...preceive 1st. That it consists of three terms. 2d. Two of these terms, the first and last are squares. 3d. The middle term is twice the product of the square roots of the first and last. Now let us suppose that a2 is lost, and we have only x2-\-2a&'. We know these terms cannot make... | |

...62 = 4«e. This is evident from § 151. ; for we saw there, that when a trinomial is a square, its middle term is twice the product of the square roots of the first and third. Hence, that ax* i-bx+c may be a square, we must have to=2o5c% ; and from this, by dividing by x, and... | |

...• 9a«— 48a<62+64asi< is a perfect square ; for the two extreme terms are perfect squares, and the middle term is twice the product of the square roots of the extreme terms; hence the square root of the trinomial is Or, . Sa^—Sab*. An expression such as 4a!+... | |

...trinomial can be separated into two binomial factors, when the extremes are squares and positive, and the middle term is twice the product of the square roots of the extremes. See Articles 79 and 80. Thus: a'+2ab+b*=(a+b)(a+b). a'—2ab+b'=(a—b)(a—b). 2d. Any binomial,... | |
