Try to factor this multi-variable trinomial using trial and errorFound a factorization  :  (x - 8y)•(x - 8y)

Detecting a perfect square :

 2.2    x2  -16xy  +64y2  is a perfect squareIt factors into  (x-8y)•(x-8y)
which is another way of writing  (x-8y)2

How to recognize a perfect square trinomial: • It has three terms • Two of its terms are perfect squares themselves • The remaining term is twice the product of the square roots of the other two terms

Final result :

(x - 8y)2
