Class 8MathematicsAlgebraic Expressions and Identities
Using Identities for Calculation
Mental math with identities: 103ยฒ = (100+3)ยฒ = 10000+600+9 = 10609. 97ยฒ = (100-3)ยฒ = 10000-600+9 = 9409. 103ร97 = (100+3)(100-3) = 100ยฒ-3ยฒ = 10000-9 = 9991. Much faster than direct multiplication! These same identities appear in advanced algebra and calculus.
