This matches the three-term identity where the term containing variable b is negative because both cross-product terms that include b have a minus sign in the expression.

To factor this six-term polynomial, we look at the signs of the products to find which base value carries the negative sign. The perfect square bases are 3a, b and 2c. We notice that the terms 6ab and 4bc are negative, while 12ac is positive. Since the negative components both contain the variable b, the base associated with b must be negative. This gives the grouped factor (3a – b + 2c) square.
