Consider the right hand side (RHS) and expand it as follows:
(x−y)(x
2
+xy+y
2
)=x
3
+x

y+xy

=LHS
Hence proved.
Yes, we can call it as an identity: For example:
Let us take x=2 and y=1 in x
3
−y
3
=(x−y)(x
2
+xy+y
2
) then the LHS and RHS will be equal as shown below:

=7 and
(2−1)(2

+(2×1)+1

)=1(5+2)=1×7=7
Therefore, LHS=RHS
Hence, x
