I. Background Information for Learners:
In this lesson, you will learn to identify polynomials which are special products, find the product of polynomials
using patterns, solve real-problems involving special products and identify patterns in real-life which involves
special products.
II. Learning Competency with Code:
After going through this lesson, you are expected to;
● find the product of binomials
