Learn how to factor quadratics that have the "perfect square" form. For example, write x²+6x+9 as (x+3)².

Direct link to Eric Parker's post “normally when you have fo...” normally when you have for example x^2+6x+9 you would take the root of 9 and multiply it by 2. if the answer is the first-degree variable coefficient (6) then it satisfy the perfect squares "trick" rule, and the answer would be (x+3)^2. when you have a coefficient to the 2nd-degree variable like in 9x^2+30x+25, you do almost the same: now here is the different from before: you need to multiply both roots (3 and 5) and then multiply them by 2 (as you normally would). if the answer is the same as the 1st-degree variable's coefficient ((5*3)*2=30) then the trick can be applied here also, giving you the answer made of those 2 roots you found erlier(3 and 5)-squared.

Hope I have helped :)
first you find the root of the 0-degree variable (25), which is 5. (5^2=25)
then you find the root of the 2nd-degree variable's coefficient (9), which is 3 (3^2=9).
(3x+5)^2
hope you understood and that it helped you.
