To multiply (8x+1)(8x−1),

you can use the pattern:

(a+b)(a−b)=a2−b2.

What are the values of a and b?

Enter your answers in the boxes below.

a=

b=

Answer :

The values of a and b are, [tex]a=8x,b=1[/tex]

Square identity :

The given identity is,

          [tex](a+b)(a-b)=a^{2} -b^{2}[/tex]

We have to multiply,

        [tex](8x+1)(8x-1)=(8x)^{2} -(1)^{2}[/tex]

After comparing , both equation shown above.

We get,  [tex]a=8x,b=1[/tex]
