This topic focuses on practicing polynomial algebra with a specific emphasis on simplifying expressions using the difference of squares formula, targeting variables. The problems help learners understand how to express the differences of two squares, like \(a^2 - b^2\), as the product of their sum and difference \((a+b)(a-b)\). Each question presents an expression involving the square of two variables and asks for simplification into either a product of binomials or a binomial raised to a power. This topic helps build foundational algebra skills related to polynomials and their properties.
