FACTORING FORMULA TRAINING
Look at an expanded expression and choose its factorised form.
Recognise the pattern and practise in 10-question rounds.
ABOUT THIS GAME
About this game
Spot the pattern. Choose the identity.
In Levels 1 and 2, recognise perfect-square trinomials of the form A² ± 2AB + B².
In Level 3, factorise a difference of squares: A² − B².
Level 4 mixes the three patterns.
Practise choosing the identity that matches the expression.
POINT
What to focus on
01
Recognise familiar patterns
Look at an expression and decide which factorisation identity applies.
02
Build up through the levels
Start with perfect squares, move to differences of squares, then try a mixed round.
03
Practise patterns over 10 questions
The variables and numbers change. Practise recognising identities as well as recalling them.
