Consider the equation 9x2-12x +4=0, which sets a quadratic expression equal to zero. Part A Which, if any, special factoring pattern could be used in finding the factorization of the expression? A. Perfect Square Trinomial of a sum: a? +2ab + b² = (a +b)² B. Perfect Square Trinomial of a difference: a? – 2ab +b² = (a – b)² C. Difference of Squares: a2 – b² = (a +b)(a – b) D. Sum of Squares: a2 +b = (a + bi)(a – bi) - %3D %3D E. None of these Enter the Letter of your choice here (just the letter, as a capital, no periods or spaces): Part B If the expression matches one of the patterns, what are the values for the a and the b used in that pattern? (For a, enter both the coefficient and variable: for b, enter the constant: if no pattern applies (answer E, above), enter "n/a" with no quotes)
