Solution :

*************************************
We know the algebraic identity:

x² - y² = ( x + y )( x - y )

**************************************

Here ,

( a - 5 )² - ( a - 8 )²

= [ a - 5 + a - 8 ][ a - 5 - ( a - 8 )]

= ( 2a - 13 )( a - 5 - a + 8 )

= ( 2a - 13 )( 3 )

=3( 2a - 13 )

Answer: 3 ( 2a - 13 )

Step-by-step explanation:

_________________________________________

Using the identity

x² - y² = ( x + y )( x - y )

_________________________________________

( a - 5 )² - ( a - 8 )²

= [ a - 5 + a - 8 ][ a - 5 - ( a - 8 )]

= ( 2a - 13 )( a - 5 - a + 8 )

= ( 2a - 13 )( 3 )

=3( 2a - 13 )
