Factorisation

Clear, exam-focused notes on every IGCSE factorising method, from common factors to quadratics, with fully worked examples.

A complete 23-page IGCSE guide to factorisation. It covers taking out common factors, factorising by grouping, and factorising quadratics of the form x² + bx + c and ax² + bx + c. It also covers the difference of two squares and perfect square trinomials. Later sections use factorisation to solve quadratic equations and include a decision flowchart for choosing the right method. Every method comes with fully worked examples, sign rules and an expand-to-check step. It ends with a summary, common mistakes to avoid and exam tips.
