FOIL Method

When we multiply binomials we use distribution. One way to remember the sequence for multiplying each term by each term is the FOIL method.


FOIL

F = first terms in each parenthesis

O = outer two terms in each parenthesis

I = inner two terms in the parenthesis

L = last two terms in the parenthesis
