Subtraction in mathematics means you are taking something away from a group or number of things. When you subtract, what is left in the group becomes less. An example of a subtraction problem is the following: 5 - 3 = 2. Notice that there are three parts to the subtraction problem shown. The part you start with is called the minuend.
When you are working on factoring a polynomial, sometimes your polynomial can be written using the difference between two squares. What does the difference between two squares mean? Well, difference means subtract, so it will involve subtracting two things. Two squares means there will be two perfect squares in the difference; that is, two numbers that come from squaring other numbers (like 4, which is 2 squared, or x 2, which is x times x). Type your polynomial into the box to the right. This page will see if your polynomial can be written using the difference between two squares. Note that not all polynomials can be written this way, so do not be disappointed if your â s can â t. Note also you use the ^ symbol for exponent. So, x2 would be typed as x^2.
