Factor polynomial $$ 4t^{2}-1 $$
Answer
$$ 4t^{2}-1 = ( 2t-1 )( 2t+1 ) $$
Explanation
Rewrite $ 4t^{2}-1 $ as:
$$ 4t^{2}-1 = (2t)^2 - (1)^2 $$Now we can apply the difference of squares formula.
$$ I^2 - II^2 = (I - II)(I + II) $$After putting $ I = 2t $ and $ II = 1 $ , we have:
$$ 4t^{2}-1 = (2t)^2 - (1)^2 = ( 2t-1 ) ( 2t+1 ) $$This page was created using
