WORKSHEET 01
(x + p)(x + q) = x² + (p+q)x + pq
Quadratic Area Models
Visualize polynomial expansions on a 2D coordinate grid. Shift variables and watch the area partition into quadratic, linear, and constant quadrants.

WORKSHEET 02
a³ - b³ = (a - b)(a² + ab + b²)
Difference of Cubes
Slice an isometric 3D cube model. Understand how removing a smaller corner cube partitions the remaining solid into three distinct rectangular prisms.
