Recognizing a Special Product of a Binomial Expression

In this short video we will answer a standardized math test multiple choice question where we are asked to find an equivalent expression. We will first identify that the expression is a binomial expression since it has two terms. We will then recognize that each of the terms is a perfect square and it is a difference. We will understand that this is the difference of squares and can be written as a product of (a - b)(a + b).
