Introduction on practice 8th Grade Algebra 1:

      Practice 8th grade algebraic identity is an algebra relation of equality that remains true for all
values of literals occurring in the relation. Following practice 8th grade algebra 1 identities :

  (a + b)2 = a2 + 2ab + b2


  (a – b)2 = a2 – 2ab + b2
  (a + b) (a – b) = a2 – b2

     We write it as a product of  practice 8th grade Algebra expressions, Each expression in the
product is called a factor. Process of finding factors is factorisation.

Some more Standard Identities for Practice 8th Grade


Algebra 1 :
The Product (x + a) (x + b):

Multiply two identical binomials 8th grade practice. Find the second terms of two binomials 8th
grade practice are different.

x + a and x + b

(x + a)(x + b) = x (x + b) + a (x + b)

                     = x2 + xb + ax + ab

                     = x2 + bx + ax + ab (Since xb = bx)

                     = x2 + ax + bx + ab (Since bx + ax = ax + bx)

                     = x2 + (a + b)x + ab

We have following algebra identity :

Identity I : (x + a) (x + b) = x2 + (a + b)x + ab

Example Algebra 1 Problem:

(i) (y + 2) (y + 6)      (ii) (x + 5) (x – 3)

Sol : (i) Let us compare (y + 2) (y + 6) with (x + a) (x + b). We observe that

  x = y, a = 2, b = 6
  Using algebra Identity I, we have

  (y + 2) (y + 6) = y2 + ( 2 + 6 ) y + 2 × 6= y2 + 8y + 12

(ii) Let us compare (x + 5) (x – 3) with (x + a) (x + b). We observe that

      a = 5, b = – 3

  (x + 5) (x – 3) = x2 + {5 + (– 3)}x + 5× (– 3)= x2 + 2x – 15

Algebra 1 :
The Product (x - a) (x - b):

Multiply two identical binomials 8th grade practice. Find the second terms of two binomials 8th
grade practice are different.

x - a and x - b

(x - a)(x - b) = x (x - b) + a (x - b)

                     = x2 - xb - ax - ab

                     = x2 - bx - ax - ab (Since xb = bx)

                     = x2 - ax - bx - ab (Since bx - ax = ax - bx)

                     = x2 - (a - b)x - ab

We have following algebra identity :

Identity I : (x - a) (x - b) = x2 - (a - b)x - ab
