...power or square of the sum of two quantities contains the square of the first quantity, plus double the product of the first by the second, plus the square of the second. Thus, (7 + 3) (7 + 3) or, (7 + 3)' = 49 + 42 + 9 = 100 So also (5 a2 + 8 a2 6)2 = 25 a6 + 80 <tb +...

...other. This is the square of a + b (Art. 11), and the result may be expressed in words, as follows : " The square of the sum of two quantities is equal to the sum of the squares of the two quantities, together with twice their product.1"* (2) To find the square...

...enunciated in another manner : viz. The square of any polynomial contains the square of the first term, plus twice the product of the first by the second, plus the square of the second; plus twice the product of each of the two first terms by the third, plus the square of the third; plus...

...principles, (a+by=(a+b) (a+b)=a3+'2ab+b3. That is, the square of the sum of two quantities is composed of the square of the first, plus twice the product of...first by the second, plus the square of the second. Thus, to form the square of 5a3+8a3i, we have, from what has just been said, 2d. To form the square...

...4a6a) x (7asb + 4a62) = 49a«6s — 16а»ЬЧ The following properties are also of great use : — 1. The square of the sum of two quantities, is equal to the sum of their squares plus twice their product. Let a and b be the quantities, then a -fb is theipsum,...

...to form the square or second power of the binomial, (a+*)- We have, from known principles, That is, the square of the sum of two quantities is equal to...first by the second, plus the square of the second. Thus, to form the square of 5a"-\-8a2b, we have, from what has just been said, 2d. To form the square...

...will be useful exercises. It is required to prove 1°. That (a + 6) (n + b) = os + lab + 63 ; or, that the square of the sum of two quantities is equal to the square of the first quantity, plus the square of the second, plus twice the product of the first and second. 2°. That...

...to form the square or second power of the binomiaj (a+b). We have, from known principles, That is, the square of the sum of two quantities is equal to...first by the second, plus the square of the second. 1. Form the square of 2a+36. We have from the rule (2a + 36)2 = 4<z3 + 12ab + 962. 2. (5a6 + 3<zc)2...

...or second power of the binomial, (a-\-b). We have, from known principles, That is, the square ofthe sum of two quantities is equal to the square of the first, plus twice the product of tl>e first by the second, plus the square of the second. Thus, to form the square of 5a2+8a26, we have,...

...is, the square of the difference between two quantities is equal to the square of the first, minus twice the product of the first by the second, plus the square of the second. Thus, (7o3i3— 12ai3)3=49o4i4— 168a3i5+144a3i6. 3d. Let it be required to multiply a-\-b by a —...
