Arrange the cube and cuboids obtained in Fig. 10.1 to 10.4 to form a solid as shown in Fig. 10.5, which is a cube of side a units.

Now, remove a cube of side b units from the solid obtained in Fig. 10.5, thus we obtain solid as shown in Fig. 10.6.

Demonstration
For Fig. 10.1, volume of cuboid = (a-b) x a x a = (a-b)a²
For Fig. 10.2, volume of cuboid = (a-b) x a x b = (a-b)ab
For Fig. 10.3, volume of cuboid = (a – b) x b x b = (a – b)b²
For Fig. 10.4, volume of cube =b³
For Fig. 10.5, volume of cube = Sum of volume of all cubes and cuboids
= (a – b)a² + (a – b)ab + (a – b)b² + b³ …..(i)
The cube obtained in Fig. 10.5 has its each side a.
Its volume = (side)³ = a³ …..(ii)
From Eqs. (i) and (ii), we get
a³ = (a – b)a² + (a – b)ab + (a – b)b² + b³ …..(iii)
For Fig. 10.6, volume of solid obtained = a³ – b³
= (a – b)a² + (a – b)ab + (a – b)b² + b³ – b³ [from Eq.(iii)]
= (a – b)a² + (a – b)ab + (a – b)b² = (a-b) (a² +ab + b²)
Therefore, a³-b³ = (a-b) (a²+ab+b²)
Here, volume is in cubic units.
Observation
On actual measurement, we get
a = ……. , b = ……. ,
So, a² =…….. , b² = ……. ,
(a- b) = ……. , ab = ……. ,
a³ =…….. , b³ = ……. ,
Hence, a³-b³ = (a-b) (a²+ab+b²).
Result
The algebraic identity a³-b³ = (a-b) (a²+ab+b²) has been verified.

Demonstration
For Fig. 10.1, volume of cuboid = (a-b) x a x a = (a-b)a²
For Fig. 10.2, volume of cuboid = (a-b) x a x b = (a-b)ab
For Fig. 10.3, volume of cuboid = (a – b) x b x b = (a – b)b²
For Fig. 10.4, volume of cube =b³
For Fig. 10.5, volume of cube = Sum of volume of all cubes and cuboids
= (a – b)a² + (a – b)ab + (a – b)b² + b³ …..(i)
The cube obtained in Fig. 10.5 has its each side a.
Its volume = (side)³ = a³ …..(ii)
From Eqs. (i) and (ii), we get
a³ = (a – b)a² + (a – b)ab + (a – b)b² + b³ …..(iii)
For Fig. 10.6, volume of solid obtained = a³ – b³
= (a – b)a² + (a – b)ab + (a – b)b² + b³ – b³ [from Eq.(iii)]
= (a – b)a² + (a – b)ab + (a – b)b² = (a-b) (a² +ab + b²)
Therefore, a³-b³ = (a-b) (a²+ab+b²)
Here, volume is in cubic units.
Result
The algebraic identity a³-b³ = (a-b) (a²+ab+b²) has been verified.
