What is different about them?
b.
How does this difference affect the expressions that represent the area?
c.
Describe how the arrangement of the squares and rectangles affects the factored form.
Another way to represent a quadratic expression is with an open area model. Each diagram represents both factored and standard form. For each open area model given, find the factored and standard form.
