Answer:
For two vectors ( a + b) and ( a - b ) to be parallel their cross product need to vanish ie
( a + b ) × ( a - b ) = 0
=> a × a + b × a - a × b - b × b = 0
=> 0 + b × a + b × a + 0= 0 ( because a×a =0, and b× b = 0)
==> 2 b × a = 0; or b × a = 0.
Or this implies that vectors a and b are parallel to each other.
The only way (a + b) and ( a - b) are parallel to each other is when a and b are themselves parallel to each other.
