Huh?

OpenStudy (defiance):

64 + \[a^{2}\]

64- a2 If the task is to factor the posted expression, note that it is the difference of two squares.

Directrix (directrix):

64- a2 = 8^2 - a^2 The factoring pattern for the difference of two squares is: (a^2 - b^2) = (a + b)*(a - b)

OpenStudy (defiance):

Lol, Thank lord somone is helping. I couldn't even read when he wrote it out.

Directrix (directrix):

In your problem, a is 8 and b is a. (a^2 - b^2) = (a + b)*(a - b) 64- a2 = 8^2 - a^2 = ( 8 + a) * ( ? - ?) @ak123

@Defiance I am assuming that the instructions are to factor the expression posted. So, my posts may be irrelevant. :)
