Use a geometric model to factor x2 - 6x + 8 by following these steps:
Step 1: Model the trinomial by placing tiles in the Product
section to form a rectangle at the top left.
Step 2: Drag tiles to the sections labeled Factor 1 and
Factor 2 to represent the factors.

Step 3: What is the factored form of this trinomial?
(x-2)(x - 4)
(x + 2)(x-4)
(x - 8) (x + 1)
O (x - 8) (x - 1)
