Question

Find the following product:

(1 − x) (1+ x + x2)
Answer in Brief

Solution

Given `(1-x)(1 + x  + x^2)`

We shall use the identity  `(a-b)(a^2+ ab + b^2) = a^3 - b^3`

We can rearrange the  `(1 - x) (1+ x + x^2)`as

` = (1- x) [(1)^2 + (1)(x)+ (x)^2]`

` = (1)^3 - (x)^3`

` = (1) xx (1) xx (1) - (x) xx (x) xx (x)`

` = 1=x^3`

Hence the Product value of `(1-x)(1+x + x^2)`is  `1-x^3`.
