(X^2) + 4 = 0
(X^2) = -4
X = +/- 2i
(X+2i)(X-2i)
This can't be factorised easily. The above method is the factorisation for (X^2) - 4,
and is also the difference of two squares (9-4) = (3+2)(3-2) etc...

(x - 8)(x - 4)
The GCF is 4.
The factors are -1(2x + 1)(3x + 4)
x(x-4)
It is the difference of squares. (x-4) and (x+4) <--- answer
