Formula
- a3 - b3 = ( a - b )( a2 + ab + b2)
Notes
Factorisation using Identity a3 - b3 = (a - b)(a2 + ab + b2):
(a - b)3 = a3 - 3a2b + 3ab2 - b3 = a3 - b3 - 3ab(a - b)
Now, a3 - b3 - 3ab(a - b) = (a - b)3
∴ a3 - b3 = (a - b)3 + 3ab(a - b)
a3 - b3 = [(a - b)(a - b)2 + 3ab(a - b)]
a3 - b3 = (a - b)[(a - b)2 + 3ab]
a3 - b3 = (a - b)(a2 - 2ab + b2 + 3ab)
a3 - b3 = (a - b)(a2 + ab + b2)
∴ a3 - b3 = (a - b)(a2 + ab + b2).
Example
Factorise: x3 - 8y3
x3 - 8y3 = x3 - (2y)3
∴ x3 - 8y3 = x3 - (2y)3
x3 - 8y3 = (x - 2y)(x2 + 2xy + 4y2)
Example
Factorise: 27p3 - 125q3.
27p3 - 125q3
= (3p)3 - (5q)3
= (3p - 5q) (9p2 + 15pq +25q2)
Example
Factorise: 54p3 - 250q3.
54p3 - 250q3.
= 2[27p3 - 125q3]
= 2[(3p)3 - (5q)3]
= 2(3p - 5q)(9p2 + 15pq + 25q2)
Example
Factorise: `a^3 - 1/(a^3)`
`a^3 - 1/(a^3)`
`= (a - 1/a)(a^2 + 1 + 1/(a^2))`
Example
Simplify: (a - b)3 - (a3 - b3)
(a - b)3 - (a3 - b3)
= a3 - 3a2b + 3ab2 - b3 - a3 + b3
= 3a2b + 3ab2.
Example
Simplify: (2x + 3y)3 - (2x - 3y)3
Using the formula a3 - b3 = (a - b)(a2 + ab + b2)
∴ (2x + 3y)3 - (2x - 3y)3
= [(2x + 3y) - (2x - 3y)][(2x + 3y)2 + (2x + 3y)(2x - 3y) + (2x - 3y)2]
= [2x + 3y - 2x + 3y][4x2 + 12xy + 9y2 + 4x2 - 9y2 + 4x2 - 12xy + 9y2]
= 6y(12x2 + 9y2)
= 72x2y + 54y3
