Q1(v):
Use suitable identities to find the following products:
(v) $(3 – 2x) (3 + 2x)$
Solution :
Step 1: Initial Setup & Identification of the Algebraic Identity
We are tasked with finding the product of the binomials $(3 - 2x)$ and $(3 + 2x)$.
By analyzing the structure of the expression, we observe that it consists of the product of the difference and the sum of the exact same two terms. This perfectly matches the standard algebraic identity for the Difference of Squares.
The Difference of Squares identity is defined as:
$(a - b)(a + b) = a^2 - b^2$
[Theoretical Justification: This identity is derived via the distributive property (FOIL method), where $(a - b)(a + b) = a^2 + ab - ab - b^2$. The middle terms $+ab$ and $-ab$ cancel each other out, leaving $a^2 - b^2$.]
Step 2: Variable Mapping
To apply the identity, we map the terms from our specific expression $(3 - 2x)(3 + 2x)$ to the general variables $a$ and $b$ in the identity:
- Let $a = 3$
- Let $b = 2x$
Step 3: Application of the Identity
Substituting the mapped variables into the right-hand side of the identity $(a^2 - b^2)$, we construct the following equation:
$(3 - 2x)(3 + 2x) = (3)^2 - (2x)^2$
Step 4: Algebraic Simplification
Now, we evaluate the squares for both terms independently:
- First term: $(3)^2 = 3 \times 3 = 9$
- Second term: $(2x)^2 = (2)^2 \cdot (x)^2 = 4x^2$
[Per the Power of a Product Rule in exponentiation: $(xy)^n = x^n y^n$]
Substituting these evaluated squares back into our equation yields:
$(3)^2 - (2x)^2 = 9 - 4x^2$
Geometric Representation of the Difference of Squares
The algebraic identity $(a - b)(a + b) = a^2 - b^2$ can be visualized geometrically. If we take a large square of area $a^2$ and remove a smaller square of area $b^2$, the remaining area can be rearranged into a rectangle with dimensions $(a - b)$ and $(a + b)$.
Final Solution: The product of $(3 - 2x)(3 + 2x)$ is $9 - 4x^2$.
