Which of the following identity can be used to factorize x2−4y2?
= (a - b)(a + b)
(x + a)(x + b) =
None of these
x2−4y2 is in the form of a2−b2 So, a2−b2=(a−b)(a+b) can be used.
x2−4y2=x2−(2y)2=(x+2y)(x−2y)
Which of the following identity is not applicable to simplify (4x+5y)2−(5x+4y)2?
The length of common chord of the circles (x−a)2+y2 =a2 and x2+(y−b)2 = b2 is
