(x + y + z) (x + y - z) ?????????? what's the method to be used here?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

mulitplication .... but they prolly want the distributive property as a definitive answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you use the distributive law firat multiply the second bracket by x, then by y and finally by. then simplify the result

OpenStudy (amistre64):

x + y + z x + y - z ----------- x^2 +xy +xz +xy +y^2 +yz -xz -yz -z^2 -------------------------- x^2 +2xy +y^2 -z^2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

for this consider, ((x+y)+z)((x+y)-z)=(x+y)^2-z^2=x^2+y^2+2xy-z^2
