Question

Find the value of 37^2-12^2

Answer 1

Answer:

1225

Step-by-step explanation:

^ Signifies a power, e.g 2^2 is 2 to the power of two, or two squared. You're just working with powers of two in this question so you just multiply the numbers together.

You need to work this out by doing indices/powers first.

37^2 (or 37*37) = 1369

12^2 (or 12*12) = 144

Then, it's a simple matter of subtracting the two values.

1369-144 = 1225

Answer 2

37^2 - 12^2

1369 - 144

1225
