A rectangle has length (a+b) and breadth (a−b). What result is shown by the area model?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: a²−b²

The direct answer is B. The rectangle’s area is length times breadth: (a+b)(a−b). Multiply each part: a·a=a², a·(−b)=−ab, b·a=ab, and b·(−b)=−b². The two mixed terms, −ab and +ab, cancel, leaving a²−b². In an area model this cancellation can be shown by equal positive and negative mixed regions. A is the expansion of (a+b)², not conjugate factors. C fails to cancel the mixed terms completely. D is the expansion of (a−b)², where both mixed terms are negative. Memory cue: opposite signs in the two brackets produce the difference of the squares.
