Consider the polynomial identity (difference of squares):
(x+y)(x-y) = x² - y²
Set x =7 and y = 2 to obtain
(7+2)*(7-2) = 7² - 2²
9*5 = 49 - 4
45 = 49 - 4
This is the result required, obtained by using difference of squares.
Answer: Difference of squares.
When you bisect something, you cut it into two equally sized pieces. (from Latin: "bi" = two, "sect" = cut)
Bisecting an interval creates two smaller intervals each with half the length of the original interval. Some examples:
• bisecting [0, 2] gives the intervals [0, 1] and [1, 2]
• bisecting [-1, 1] gives the intervals [-1, 0] and [0, 1]
• bisecting an arbitrary interval
gives the intervals
and ![\left[\frac{a+b}2,b\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cfrac%7Ba%2Bb%7D2%2Cb%5Cright%5D)
