Is there anything to be done with the sum of two squares?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

nothing in real i guess

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what exactly do you want to know?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I answered these questions "How do you factor the difference of two squares? How do you factor the perfect square trinomial? How do you factor the sum and difference of two cubes" then was asked "is there anything to be done with the sum of two squares".........

lol.... "nothing, real-ly"....

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I did not think so

hero (hero):

a^2 - b^2 = (a+b)(a-b)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x^4+y^4= (x^2+ y^2 + sqrt(2) xy) (x^2+ y^2 - sqrt(2) xy)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but if you work with "i", then (x+2i)(x-2i) = x^2 + 4, sum of squares....

^That's a good response
