Visual Proof 1 of the Algebraic Identity (a - b)^2

 


SUBJECT AREA: Algebra
TOPIC: ALgebraic Identities - Math Proofs and Derivations - Visual Geometric Proofs
PREREQUISITES: Areas of plane figures (square and rectangles), Distributive Property of Multiplication, Operations on Algebraic Expressions

This is just one of the ways of representing the algebraic identity (a-b)^2 visually and geometrically. Prerequisite concepts: - area of a square - area of a rectangle - distributive property of multiplication In this video, the algebraic identity (a-b)^2 = a^2 - 2ab + b^2 is derived and explained geometrically. The visual proof starts with a square with side a. Dividing the square into 2 sections, a and a-b, the square will be separated into four (4) regions. One of the regions formed is a square with side (a-b). We can find the area of this square by using the areas of the remaining regions. That is, (a - b)^2 is equal to the area of the whole square minus the areas of the remaining regions. As a result, (a + b)^2 = a^2 - 2ab + b^2. If you would like to have a copy of the square template used, you may download it on my blog at https://ciemathsolutions.blogspot.com.... It is the same template used for the derivation of a plus b squared. 🕘Video Sections🕘 0:00 Intro 2:27 Prerequisite Concepts 3:20 Distributive Property of Multiplication 5:16 Start of the Visual Proof of the Identity a minus b squared 7:00 Four regions formed in the square 10:00 Derivation of the algebraic identity a minus b squared 11:21 The algebraic identity (a-b)^2 = a^2 - 2ab + b^2 11:36 Questions for today 12:00 Thank you 🎬NOTE: For a better viewing experience, please set the video in HD (1080p) mode.
