factorize xy^3-yx^3
pls I need it quickly
Answers
Answer:
hope this helps you in solving the problem
Solution :
To factorise :
> xy³ - y x³ .
We observe that the term xy is common in both terms.
> xy ( y² - x²)
A term of the form a² - b² can be factorised as ( a + b)( a - b ) .
Hence
> xy( x + y)( y - x ) .
This is the required answer.

Additional Information -
(a + b)² = a² + 2ab + b²
(a + b)² = (a - b)² + 4ab
(a - b)² = a² - 2ab + b²
(a - b)² = (a + b)² - 4ab
a² + b² = (a + b)² - 2ab
a² + b² = (a - b)² + 2ab
2 (a² + b²) = (a + b)² + (a - b)²
4ab = (a + b)² - (a - b)²
ab = {(a + b)/2}² - {(a-b)/2}²
(a + b + c)² = a² + b² + c² + 2(ab + bc + ca)
(a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² b³
(a + b)³ = a³ + b³ + 3ab(a + b)
(a - b)³ = a³ - 3a²b + 3ab² - b³
a³ + b³ = (a + b)( a² - ab + b² )
a³ + b³ = (a + b)³ - 3ab( a + b)
a³ - b³ = (a - b)( a² + ab + b²)
a³ - b³ = (a - b)³ + 3ab ( a - b )
