examples for 8 identities in algebra
Answers
Identity I: (a + b)2 = a2 + 2ab + b2
Identity II: (a – b)2 = a2 – 2ab + b2
Identity III: a2 – b2= (a + b)(a – b)
Identity IV: (x + a)(x + b) = x2 + (a + b) x + ab
Identity V: (a + b + c)2 = a2 + b2 + c2 + 2ab + 2bc + 2ca
Identity VI: (a + b)3 = a3 + b3 + 3ab (a + b)
Identity VII: (a – b)3 = a3 – b3 – 3ab (a – b)
Identity VIII: a3 + b3 + c3 – 3abc = (a + b + c)(a2 + b2 + c2 – ab – bc – ca)
Example 1➡ Expand (3x – 4y)3 using standard algebraic identities.
Solution: (3x– 4y)3 is of the form Identity VII where a = 3x and b = 4y. So we have,
(3x – 4y)3 = (3x)3 – (4y)3– 3(3x)(4y)(3x – 4y) = 27x3 – 64y3 – 108x2y + 144xy2
Example 2➡Factorize (x3 + 8y3 + 27z3 – 18xyz) using standard algebraic identities.
Solution: (x3 + 8y3 + 27z3 – 18xyz)is of the form Identity VIII where a = x, b = 2y and c = 3z. So we have,
(x3 + 8y3 + 27z3 – 18xyz) = (x)3 + (2y)3 + (3z)3 – 3(x)(2y)(3z)= (x + 2y + 3z)(x2 + 4y2 + 9z2 – 2xy – 6yz – 3zx)
Identity I: (a + b)2 = a2 + 2ab + b2
Identity II: (a – b)2 = a2 – 2ab + b2
Identity III: a2 – b2= (a + b)(a – b)
Identity IV: (x + a)(x + b) = x2 + (a + b) x + ab
Identity V: (a + b + c)2 = a2 + b2 + c2 + 2ab + 2bc + 2ca
Identity VI: (a + b)3 = a3 + b3 + 3ab (a + b)
Identity VII: (a – b)3 = a3 – b3 – 3ab (a – b)
Identity VIII: a3 + b3 + c3 – 3abc = (a + b + c)(a2 + b2 + c2 – ab – bc – ca)
