The difference of two squares can also be illustrated geometrically as the difference of two square areas in a plane. In the diagram, the shaded part represents the difference between the areas of the two squares, i.e. a 2 − b 2 {\displaystyle a^{2}-b^{2}} .
More generally, the difference of the squares of two numbers is the product of their sum and their difference. That is, = (+) This is the difference-of-squares formula, which can be useful for mental arithmetic: for example, 47 × 53 can be easily computed as 50 2 − 3 2 = 2500 − 9 = 2491.
The sum of squares is not factorable. The squared Euclidean distance between two points, equal to the sum of squares of the differences between their coordinates; Heron's formula for the area of a triangle can be re-written as using the sums of squares of a triangle's sides (and the sums of the squares of squares)
There is also a formula derivable from a difference of two squares to receive the difference's value. when a is a perfect square, x^2 - a = (x - a)^2 - a(a + 2x -1) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.44.52.119 01:14, 22 September 2010 (UTC)
Fermat's theorem on sums of two squares is strongly related with the theory of Gaussian primes.. A Gaussian integer is a complex number + such that a and b are integers. The norm (+) = + of a Gaussian integer is an integer equal to the square of the absolute value of the Gaussian integer.
