{(x - y)}^(2) solve it​

Question

`{(x - y)}^(2)`
solve it​

Answer 1

`X^2 - 2XY + Y^2`

Explanation:

GIVEN:

(x - y)^2

DISTRIBUTE:

(x-y)(x-y)

X * X = X^2

X * -Y= -XY

-Y * X = -XY

-Y * -Y = Y^2

COMBINE:

X^2 - 2XY + Y^2

Answer 2

Explanation:

`= {(x - y)}^(2) \\ = {x}^(2) - 2xy + {y}^(2)`
