Part One

Create a flow chart for factoring. The flowchart should cover Greatest Common Factors, Linear and Quadratic Polynomials. Also, the flow chart should take into account recognizing special polynomials and have a branch for those.

How to create a flowchart:

• Digital in Lucid
• Digital in Word
• General Information on flowcharts
• Example of a Flowchart

Part Two

Research various strategies for factoring quadratics such as factoring tiles, the box method, the AC method, etc. Pick your favorite and explain it in your words, include diagrams and examples to factor 3 quadratics, at least two of the quadratics should have a leading coefficient greater than one (a>1).
