Given,
Area = 12x2 - 35x + 25
⇒ lb = 12x2 - 35x + 25
⇒ lb = 12x2 - 15x - 20x + 25
⇒ lb = 3x(4x - 5) - 5(4x - 5)
⇒ lb = (4x - 5)(3x - 5).
Hence, if length = (4x - 5) then breadth = (3x - 5) and if length = (3x - 5) then breadth = (4x - 5).

For each trinomial (quadratic expression), given below, find whether it is factorisable or not. Factorise, if possible.
(i) x2 - 3x - 54
(ii) 2x2 - 7x - 15
(iii) 2x2 + 2x - 75
(iv) 3x2 + 4x - 10
(v) x(2x - 1) - 1
Factorise :
9a2 - (a2 - 4)2
