Factor:
This is not factorable.
Your answer doesn't work and you can readily see this when you multiply the factors (using FOIL) that you obtained.
Simplifying this, you get:

If you have studied complex numbers in your math course, then you can write the factors of the given expression as follows:
where
Let's multiply the factors and see what we get:
Simplifying this, we get: but, recall that , so...
Does this make sense to you?
