Grade 10 - Factoring Simple Trinomials

Find two numbers that multiply together to give you the last term and add together to give you the middle term.
If the last term is '+' then the two factors have matching signs, otherwise they do not match.
If the two brackets do not match then the final desired sign goes with the larger number.
