How to factor a perfect Square trinomial

Just to clarify on how to factor a perfect square trinomial:

You take the square root of a term (the first term in the expression) and the square root of the c term (the last term) and multiply them together and then multiply what you get by two. If that is the middle term then you have a perfect square trinomial.

a^2 -(2)(a)(c) + c^2

(a-c)^2
