factorise 36-x^2-y^2-2xy
Answers
Answer:
(6+x+y)(6-x-y)
Step-by-step explanation:
(6+x+y)(6-x-y)
Answer:
STEP
1
:
Equation at the end of step 1
((22•32x2) • y2) - 81
STEP
2
:
STEP
3
:
Pulling out like terms
3.1 Pull out like factors :
36x2y2 - 81 = 9 • (4x2y2 - 9)
Trying to factor as a Difference of Squares:
3.2 Factoring: 4x2y2 - 9
Theory : A difference of two perfect squares, A2 - B2 can be factored into (A+B) • (A-B)
Proof : (A+B) • (A-B) =
A2 - AB + BA - B2 =
A2 - AB + AB - B2 =
A2 - B2
Note : AB = BA is the commutative property of multiplication.
Note : - AB + AB equals zero and is therefore eliminated from the expression.
Check : 4 is the square of 2
Check : 9 is the square of 3
Check : x2 is the square of x1
Check : y2 is the square of y1
Factorization is : (2xy + 3) • (2xy - 3)
