Step 1: Trying to factor as a Difference of Squares:
Factoring: x²⁰⁰² - 1
Theory : A difference of two perfect squares, A² - B² can be factored into (A+B) • (A-B)
Proof : (A+B) • (A-B) =
A² - AB + BA - B² =
A² - AB + AB - B²
A² - B²
Note : AB = BA is the commutative property of multiplication.
Note : - AB + AB equals zero and is therefore eliminated from the expression.
Check : 1 is the square of 1
Check: x²⁰⁰² is the square of x¹⁰⁰¹
Factorization is : (x¹⁰⁰¹ + 1) × (x¹⁰⁰¹ - 1)
The equation in exponentail form -->. 4^-3 = (1/4)^3
1/4^3 = 1/64
1/64 = 1/64
