This document provides a summary of factoring techniques including: 1) Squaring binomials using the formula (a + b)2 = a2 + 2ab + b2 and (a - b)2 = a2 - 2ab + b2. 2) Factoring the difference of squares using the formula (a2 - b2) = (a + b)(a - b). 3) Factoring trinomials that are the product of a sum and difference using the formulas a2 - b2 = (a + b)(a - b). 4) Expanding cubes using the formula (x + a)3 = x3 + 3x2a +
