Activity 4: The Mystery Behind Special Products
Question to answer:
1. What are special Products? Are simply special cases of multiplying certain types of binomials together.
2. Discuss the process involved when using special products. When we multiply two linear (degree of 1) binomials, we create a
quadratic (degree of 2) polynomial with four terms. The middle terms are like terms so we can combine them and simplify to get a quadratic
or trinomial degree. There are some special products of binomials that make finding simplifying expressions and equations easier.
3. Why do you need a rule when finding the product of binomials when you already know the FOIL method? Because not all can be
easier with FOIL method
4. Can you formulate a rule for finding the product of (x + 2y + 3)2?
6
= 144 − 25a2b2
The answer is a difference of 2 squares.
Square of a binomial
Example 4: Expand (5a + 2b)2
2 2 2
3. (x + y) = x + 2xy + y (Square of a sum) Solution: (5a + 2b)2
= (5a)2 + 2(5a) (2b) + (2b)2
= 25a2 + 20ab + 4b2
This one is the square of a sum of 2 terms.
4. (x − y)2 = x2 − 2xy + y2 (Square of a difference) Example 5: Expand (q − 6)2
Solution: (q − 6)2
= (q)2 − 2(q)(6) + (6)2
= q2 − 12q + 36
This example involved the square of a difference of 2 terms.
What kind of special product is example 6? Example 6: Expand (8x − y)(3x + 4y)
solution: (8x − y)(3x + 4y)
(product of sum and difference) = 8x(3x + 4y) − y(3x + 4y) DPE
= 8x(3x) + 8x(4y) − y(3x) − y(4y)
= 24x2 + 32xy −3xy − 4y2
= 24x2 + 29xy − 4y2
Question to answer:
1. Describe the form of the new special product which you have learned. It has no space combined numbers and variables.
2. Name the steps involved when squaring a binomial. Expand and group
3. How can you relate this new concept with the other special products that you learned?
4. From the new pattern that you learned, can you think of a pattern which you could use to square polynomial with four terms?
For additional information regarding how multiplication could be linked with special products, you can visit this link:
http://hanlonmath.com/pdfFiles/199.SpecialProductsBH.pdf
To expand this, we put it in the form (a + b)2 and expand it using the third rule
above, which says:
Example 7: Expand (x + 2 + 3y)2
solution: (a + b)2 = a2 + 2ab + b2
I put = [x + 2]2 + 2[x + 2] (3y) + (3y)2
a=x+2 = x2 + 2xy + y2 +(2x + 2) (3y) +9y2
b = 3y
This gives me: (x + 2 + 3y)2 = x2 + 2xy + y2 + 6xy +6y +9y2
(x + 2 + 3y)2
[This is the (a + b)2 step.]
= ([x + 2] + 3y)2 many terms are there?
= [x + 2]2 + 2[x + 2] (3y) + (3y)2
Observe the following examples and take note of your observation. The square of a trinomial consists of:
a. (x + y + z)2 = x2 + y2 + z2 + 2xy + 2yz + 2xz a. the sum of the squares of the first, second
and last terms;
b. (m + n – d)2 = m2 + n2 + d2 + 2mn – 2md – 2nd
c.. (3d + 2e + f)2 = 9d2 + 4e2 + f2 + 12de + 6df + 4ef b. twice the product of the first and the second
terms;

In this section, the discussion focused on ways in which special products and factors could be used to solve geometric
problems.
Go back to the previous section and compare your initial ideas with the discussion. How much of your initial ideas are found
in the discussion? Which ideas are different and need revision?
Now that you know the important ideas about this topic, Let us go deeper by moving to the next section.
DEEPEN
Your goal in this section is to take a closer look at some aspects of the topic:
In this activity, you will learn how to make connections between algebra and biology by studying how special products could be used in the
Punnett squares. Click the link to learn more about Punnett Squares: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=prkHKjfUmMs
From the video that you watched, study the illustration found bellow.
A pink snapdragon has two genes- one white (w) and one red (R) that determines its color. The Punnett square found below
illustrates the possible results of crossing two pink snapdragons. Since each parent snapdragon passes along only one gene for color to an
offspring and pollination is at random, the snapdragon offspring will be approximately 25 % red (RR), 50% pink(RW) and 25%
white(WW).
Each of the pink parent snapdragons half red genes and half white genes. You can model the genetic makeup of each parent as 50% R +
50% W = o.5R +0.5W. When the two parents are crossed the genetic makeup of the offspring can be modeled by the product (0.5R + 0.
5W)2.
Thus, 25% of the offspring should be red, 50% should be pink and 25% should be white. Now, try solving the problem below.
In Tigers, the normal color gene C, is dominant and albino color A, is recessive. This means that tigers whose color genes are CC, CA or AC will
have normal coloring. A tigers whose color genes ar AA will be albino. The Punnett square at the right shows the possible results of crossing two
tigers that have recessive albino genes. What percent will be albino? Use the model (0.5C + 0. 5A) 2 = 0.25cc +0.5CA+ 0.25AA to answer the
questions.
Process Questions:
1. How did this particular Biology lesson makes use of Algebra?

A = 2000(1+0.06)2
25
A = 2000(1+0.12+0.0036)
A = 2000+2000(0.12)+2000(0.0036)
A = P2247.20

End of TRANSFER:
You have Completed the lesson. Before you go to the next module, you have to answer the following post assessment
Its now time to evaluate your learning. Encircle the letter of the answer that you think best answer the questions. If you do well, you may move on to
the next lesson. If your score is not at the expected level yet, you have to go back and take the lesson again.
1. The area of a rectangle is given by x 2−4 x−21. Which expressions represent the dimensions of the
rectangle?
a. x – 7 and x -3 b. x + 7 and x – 3 c. x – 21 and x + 1 d. x – 7 and x + 3
2. You deposit P1000 in a savings account that has an annual interest rate r. At the end of three years, the value of your account will be 1000(1 + r ) 3
pesos. Find the amount of money in the account if the interest rate is 3%.
3. A square piece of land was rewarded by a master to his servant. They agreed that a portion of it, represented by the rectangle inside, should be used
to construct a grotto. Find the area of the land that is available for others uses.
a. 4x2 – 9 c. 4x2 – 8 x - 9
b. 4x2 + x + 9 d. 4x2 + 9
4. Your sister wants to enlarge her closet that has an area of (x 2 + 3x + 2)ft2 . The length is (x +2)ft. After construction, the area will be x 2 + 8x +
15 ft2 with the length of (x + 3) ft. By how many feet will the length and the width increase after construction?
a. the length will increase by four feet and the width will increase by one feet.
b. the length will increase by one foot but the width will remain the same .
c. the length and the width will increase by two feet each.
d. the length will increase by one foot and the width will increase by four feet.
5. When your long test papers were returned by your Math teacher, your classmate approached you to check the item in the test found below where
he made a mistake.
Factor the polynomial completely.
x 2−8 x +16−36 y 4
=( x 2−8 x)+(16−36y4 )
¿ x (x−8)+4 (4−9 y 4 ) prime
Your classmate ask you to explain why his solution was marked wrong by the teacher. How would you explain to him the correct way of factoring?
a. The choice of grouping is wrong. The first three terms should be grouped to form a perfect square trinomial and if combined with the last
term will form a difference of two squares.
b. The choice of grouping is wrong. The first and the third terms must be grouped and the second and the fourth terms. The second and the
fourth terms has a greatest common factor
c. The choice of grouping is wrong. The first and the last terms must be grouped and the second and the third terms. The first and the last
terms form a difference of two squares. The second and third terms have a greatest common factor.
d. The choice of grouping is correct. The factoring in the third step is not complete. There is still a difference of two squares.
After you take the lesson Post assessment, if you have no questions Regarding the lesson. It is now time to evaluate your
learning.
