4
What is the total value of these pieces?
These pieces can be arranged differently.
Changing the arrangement does not change the area!
3This length is unknown.
The width of this piece is 1.
This piece is named by its area.
x
This piece is an x.
What is the total value of these pieces?
3x
4The length of this piece is x.
The width of this piece is x.
The area of this piece is x2.
5All of the yellow tiles we have used so far
represent positive values. To represent
negatives we will use the red side.
6Write an expression for the following and solve.
This is called the Zero Principle. Zero pairs
cancel each other.
Write an expression for the following and solve.
7In previous lessons, you added polynomials
Add the tiles.
8Algebra tiles can be used to model multiplying
polynomials.
Factors are represented on the outside of the
factor frame!
Factors are represented on the outside of the
factor frame!
x
The pieces of the rectangle inside the frame
represent the product!
9Negatives are represented by a red color.
x
10Today you will multiply a binomial by a binomial.
(x2)
The pieces of the rectangle inside the frame
represent the product!
11When negatives are involved, beware of zero pairs!
Remove zero pairs to find the product!
(x2)
12When not using algebra tiles, FOIL is a method
used to multiply a binomial times a binomial.

Using the distributive property
Multiply the First terms
Plus multiply the Outer terms
Plus multiply the Inner terms
Plus multiply the Last terms
Combine like terms.

The area of the rug is 6x2 x 2 units2.
16The area A of a trapezoid is one half the height
h times the sum of the bases, b1 and b2. Write
an expression for the area of the trapezoid.
The area of the trapezoid is
units2.
17The area of a triangle is one half the base b
times the height h. Write an expression for the
area of the triangle.
Example 5
Example 6
18Example 5 The area of a triangle is one half the
base b times the height h. Write an expression
for the area of the triangle.
The area of the triangle is 3x2 - 19x 14 units2.
19Example 6 The area of a triangle is one half the
base b times the height h. Write an expression
for the area of the triangle.
The area of the triangle is 4x2 - 2x 2 units2.
20Multiply a binomial with a trinomial.
Find the product.
Change subtraction to addition. Distribute the 2x
to the trinomial and then the -3.
21Example 7 Find the product.
Change subtraction to addition. Distribute the 6x
to the trinomial and then the -5.
Example 8 Find the product.

23You can also multiply polynomials in a vertical
format.
Write in a vertical format change subtraction
to addition.
Multiply 5 to the top polynomial
Multiple 6x to the top polynomial
Combine like terms.
Line up like terms vertically!
