(a+b)²= a²+2ab+b². a²-b² = (a+b)(a-b)
Answers
Answer:
Identity I: (a + b^)2 = a^2 + 2ab + b^2
Identity II: (a – b)^2 = a^2 – 2ab + b^2
Identity III: a^2 – b^2= (a + b)(a – b)
Identity IV: (x + a)(x + b) = x^2 + (a + b) x + ab
Identity V: (a + b + c)^2 = a^2 + b^2 + c^2 + 2ab + 2bc + 2ca
Identity VI: (a + b)^3 = a^3 + b^3 + 3ab (a + b)
Identity VII: (a – b)^3 = a^3 – b^3 – 3ab (a – b)
Identity VIII: a^3 + b^3 + c^3 – 3abc = (a + b + c)(a^2 + b^2 + c^2 – ab – bc – ca)

Answer:
The distributive property says for numbers A, B, C,
A × (B + C) = (A × B) + (A × C)
How does this apply to (a + b) × (a + b)?
a + b is just a number, so it is valid to treat (a + b) as A, B, or C in the distributive property, because the property *always* works when A, B, C are numbers.
So let's connect our expression to the distributive property, by setting a and b to terms with A, B, C.
A = a + b
B = a
C = b
After plugging in these values,
A × (B + C) = (A × B) + (A × C) becomes
(a + b) × (a + b) = ((a + b) × a) + ((a + b) × b)
Since the order of multiplication does not matter, we can rewrite the right side of that equation…
( a + b) × (a + b) = (a × (a + b)) + (b × (a + b))
Now, using the distributive property more simply,
(a + b) × (a + b) = (a×a + a×b) + (b×a + b×b)
The parentheses on the right side do not change order of operations, because the order that we add all of the multiplied terms up does not matter, so
(a + b) × (a + b) = a×a + a×b + b×a + b×b
Of course, b×a can be rewritten as a×b, so
(a + b) × (a + b) = a×a + a×b + a×b + b×b
Now we can combine the two like-terms of a×b
(a + b) × (a + b) = a×a + 2×a×b + b×b
Which is more common written as
(a+b)2=a2+2ab+b2
