x^2 - 169 = x^2 - 13^2
= (x+13)(x-13)

Similarly

x^2 - 16 = x^2 - 4^2
= (x+4)(x-4)

Factorizing means finding out the proper factors of what you are given with.

x² – 169 = (x + 13)(x – 13)
x² – 16 = (x + 4)(x – 4)

a^2 - b^2 = (a + b)(a - b)

1)
x^2 - 169
= x^2 - 13^2
= (x + 13)(x - 13)

2)
x^2 - 16
= x^2 - 4^2
= (x + 4)(x - 4)

x^2 - 169 = x^2 - 13^2 = (x+13) (x-13)
x^2 - 16 = x^2 - 4^2 = (x+4) (x-4)

just get the square rout and use opposite sign for its factors
therefore:

169=13x13
and x^2= x(x)

to factor
x^2-169= (x+13) (x-13)

check:

x+13
x-13
________________
x^2-13x
+13x -169
__________________
x^2 0 -169
therefore:
x^2-169

2nd question x

16=4x4

x^2=x(x)
therefore
x^2-16 = (x-4) (x+4)

ok

once you get the Square root, just add it to x for the first factor, and subtract it to x for the second factor

ok, good luck

remember square root is the number you multiply by itself to get the number.

(x-y)(x+y)
Just square root the second term, and substitute that answer to "y".
Therefore answer is (x-13)(x+13). Always remember that rule when you see x2-(a number that can be square-rooted)

Factor Quadratic Equations of the Form ex² +cx +d, e=1
Step1Use the equation x²-10x+24 as an example and factorise it as the product of two binomials.
Step2Rewrite this equation as follows: x²-10x+24= (x ?)(x ?).
Step3Fill in the missing terms of the binomials with the two integers a and b whose product is +24, the constant term of x²-10x+24, and whose sum is -10, the coefficient of the x term. Since (-6) X (-4) = +24 and (-6) + (-4) = -10, then the correct factors of +24 are -6 and -4. So the equation x²-10x+24 = (x-4) (x-6).
