Here is one way to do it x+y = 1 (x+y)^3 = 1^3 (x+y)^3 = 1 x^3+3x^2y+3xy^2+y^3 = 1 x^3+y^3+3x^2y+3xy^2 = 1 19+3x^2y+3xy^2 = 1 19+3xy(x+y) = 1 3xy(x+y) = 1-19 3xy(x+y) = -18 3xy(1) = -18 3xy = -18 xy = -18/3 xy = -6 x+y = 1 (x+y)^2 = 1^2 (x+y)^2 = 1 x^2+2xy+y^2 = 1 x^2+y^2+2xy = 1 x^2+y^2 = 1-2xy x^2+y^2 = 1-2(-6) x^2+y^2 = 1+12 x^2+y^2 = 13
