CHAPTER XIV

A REVIEW OF SECONDARY SCHOOL ALGEBRA

300. Only the most important topics are included in this review. From five to ten recitations should be given to this work before beginning regular work in Chapter I.

With the kind permission of Professor Hart, a number of the exercises have been taken from the Second Course in Algebra, by Wells and Hart.

301. Special Products. The following products are fundamental: (1) The product of the sum and difference of any two numbers:

If the second term of the binomial has the sign (−), then the middle term of the square has the sign (−).

(3) The product of two binomials having a common term:
