If (x+y) (x-y) = a+b a-b , then what is x y equal to?

Options

  1. Ab a
  2. Ba b
  3. Ca b
  4. D1

Correct answer

B. a b

Step-by-step solution

aligned & (x+y)+ (x-y) (x+y)- (x-y) = a+b+a-b a+b-a+b & 2 ( x+y+x-y 2 ) ( x+y-x+y 2 ) 2 ( x+y+x-y 2 ) ( x+y-x+y 2 ) = 2 a 2 b & x y x y = a b & x y= a b & x 1 y = a b x y = a b aligned
