What is the area of a rectangle with length (r+s) and breadth (r-s)?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: r²-s²

The correct answer is C: r²-s². The area of a rectangle is length × breadth, so calculate (r+s)(r-s). Multiply term by term: r×r=r², r×(-s)=-rs, s×r=rs, and s×(-s)=-s². The two middle terms cancel because -rs+rs=0, leaving r²-s². This is the identity (u+v)(u-v)=u²-v². Option A incorrectly changes the minus sign before s² to plus. Option B is the expansion of (r-s)², which would require both factors to be r-s, not one sum and one difference. Option D is the expansion of (r+s)² and has a positive middle term. Therefore C is the only correct result. Memory cue: when conjugate binomials, a sum and the matching difference, are multiplied, the middle terms cancel.
