1. Multiplying Polynomials Honors Math – Grade 8

2. KEY CONCEPT FOIL Method To multiply two binomials, find the sum of the products of Fthe FIRST terms Othe OUTER terms Ithe INNER terms Lthe LAST terms F O I L Product of First Terms Product of Outer Terms Product of Inner Terms Product of Last Terms + + +

3. = FOIL FOIL Method Multiply Combine like terms Recall the FOIL definition – the sum of the products. Positive = addition, negative = subtraction

4. = FOIL FOIL Method Multiply Combine like terms Recall the FOIL definition – the sum of the products. Positive = addition, negative = subtraction

5. = FOIL FOIL Method Multiply Combine like terms Recall the FOIL definition – the sum of the products. Positive = addition, negative = subtraction

6. = FOIL FOIL Method Multiply Combine like terms Recall the FOIL definition – the sum of the products. Positive = addition, negative = subtraction

7. Use the “Tabular Method.” (BOX) Add on diagonals.

8. Write in column form. Multiply with the “ones column” first. Multiply with the “tens column” next. Align like terms under each other. + Add the products

9. Write in column form. Multiply with the “ones column” first. Multiply with the “tens column” next. Align like terms under each other. + Add the products

10. Use the “Tabular Method.” (BOX) Add on diagonals.

11. Write in column form. Multiply with the “ones column” first. Multiply with the “tens column” next. Align like terms under each other. + Add the products Multiply with the “hundreds” next.

12. Write in column form. Multiply with the “ones column” first. Multiply with the “tens column” next. Align like terms under each other. + Add the products Multiply with the “hundreds” next.
