Algebra is Useful: 5000 Practice Problems to Show how Algebraic Identities can be used to Simplify Arithmetic Calculations Norman Sanko

What This Book Is About Many students who encounter algebra for the first time when they enter middle school think that it is only about letters and operations and identities and factors and equations. They are partly right. Elementary and intermediate algebra are definitely about all those things, but their applications in other fields - physics, economics, biology, business modeling, and so on - are vast, and growing rapidly. This book focuses on the application of elementary algebraic identities to simplify arithmetic and numerical calculations. In the age of the calculator and of calculator apps, tedious computations done by hand are almost a thing of the past - but not entirely. As part of the steps required to solve a long problem in mathematics or in allied fields, long numerical calculations are often encountered. It is tedious to pull out the calculator every single time; indeed, some tests do not allow the usage of calculators, even in this day and age. In such situations, it is very useful to be able to use algebraic identities to simplify complex computations. And who can forget the fact that you look like a genius when you reduce what looks like a difficult task even for a calculator, to something you can do in your head? This book focuses on the three basic square identities that students spend the first few months of an introductory algebra course mastering. As you go through the theory, through the solved examples, through the Challenge Section, and through the detailed drills, you will find that it is flexible, and that the difficulty level rises slowly. You will be able to level up till your expertise in the subject matches that which you require in your chosen field of

study; you can spend ten hours or a thousand hours on the exercises in this book, according to your requirement. Future books in this series will explore the applications of other identities from intermediate algebra, including the cubic identities. I am confident that the tools you learn in this book will stand you in good stead throughout your education, and throughout your career. Best of luck!

The Identity (a + b)² = (a² + b² + 2ab): Basic Theory The algebraic identity: (a + b)² = (a² + b² + 2ab), Where a and b can take on any numerical values, is the first identity that is taught in most middle school algebra classrooms. It is also one of the most useful. This identity is usually used in simplifying long algebraic expressions, but it can also be very useful in making arithmetic calculations more simple. Let’s find out how! Using this algebraic identity to help with arithmetic calculations For small values of a and b, the identity does not give us any useful shortcuts in calculation. Assume a = 5, and b = 2, in the identity above. The Left Hand Side of the identity = (a + b)² = (5 + 2)² = 7² = 49. The Right Hand Side = (a² + b² + 2ab) = (5² + 2² + 2 x 5 x 2) = 25 + 4 + 20 = 49. Both calculations are relatively equal in complexity - and they, of course, give us the same result. However, for certain values of a and b, this identity can drastically reduce the amount of computational work we have to do. Here is an example: Let us imagine that we were asked to find the value of 10012 (without using a calculator app). This can be done by multiplying 1001 by 1001, by hand - but this is quite cumbersome, and errors might happen. Here is another way: In the identity (a + b)² = (a² + b² + 2ab), we put a = 1000, and b = 1. The Left Hand Side of this equation becomes (1000 + 1)² = (1001)², which is exactly what we want to find.

The Right Hand Side of this equation is (a² + b² + 2ab) = (1000² + 1² + 2 x 1000 x 1) = (1000000 + 1 + 2000) = 1002001. You will have noticed that this method was very simple, because we were able to avoid difficult calculations. It is also more likely to be error-free, because all we have to worry about is addition, which is much easier to do by hand than a long multiplication. The same identity can help us simplify many other cumbersome arithmetic calculations. In the next chapter, you will see a few different calculations for which you can take the help of our trusty identity. Detailed solutions are also provided, so that you can arm yourself with all the examples you need, before you move to the Challenge Section!

Solutions: The Identity (a + b)² = (a² + b² + 2ab): Practice Problems

1. Please find the value of 1002², by using algebraic identities to simplify computation. -Solution: Since 1002 is only a little higher than 1000, we can deduce that the identity (a + b)² = (a² + b² + 2ab) is to be used, with some appropriately chosen values of a and b. To do this particular computation, we put a = 1000 and b = 2. After the substitution, we get 1002² = (1000 + 2)² = 1000² + 2² + (2 x 1000 x 2) = 1000000 + 4 + 4000 = 1004004. ---2. What is the value of 557² + 443² + (557 x 886)? Please use algebraic identities to make the computation simple. -Solution: First, we note that 886 = 2 x 443. Using this fact, we can rewrite the given expression as 557² + 443² + (2 x 557 x 443). Comparing this with the Right Hand Side of the identity (a + b)² = (a² + b² + 2ab), we get 557² + 443² + (557 x 886) = 557² + 443² + (2 x 557 x 443) = (557 + 443)² = 1000² = 1000000. ---3. What is the value of [4408² - 2244² - 2164²] / [4488]? -Solution: First, we look at the three numbers under the square signs in the numerator: 4408, 2244, and 2164. We note that 4408 = 2244 + 2164. We also note, in the denominator, that 4488 = 2 x 2244. Hence, we can guess that the algebraic identity (a + b)² = (a² + b² + 2ab) is to be used, but we will need to rearrange the terms of this identity to get something that will help us with our expression. After some trial and error, we note that [(a + b)² - a² - b²] / 2a = b. In this rearranged equation, we put a = 2244, and b = 2164, to get [(2244 + 2164)² - 2244² - 2164²] / 4488 = [4408² - 2244² - 2164²] / 4488 = 2164. The Left Hand Side of this equation is exactly the expression in our question, so

the value of that expression is equal to 2164. ---4. What is the square root of [983² + 182² + 357812]? -Solution: By observation, we can deduce that the given expression looks a little like the LHS of the identity (a + b)² = (a² + b² + 2ab). Indeed, if we set a = 983, and b = 182, we see that 2ab = 357812, which is exactly equal to the absolute value of the third term in the expression. Hence, we can say that [983² + 182² + 357812] = [983 + 182]². Therefore, the square root of the expression given is equal to [983 + 182] = 1165. ----

The Identity (a - b)² = (a² + b² - 2ab): Basic Theory In the previous identity, if we replace b with -b, we get the closely related: (a - b)² = (a² + b² - 2ab), Where, again, a and b can take on any numerical values. We can also use this identity to aid us in arithmetic calculations. Finding the value of 992 If we had to find the value of the square of 99 by hand, we would do a multiplication that was fairly complex, and involves carrying numbers. There is an easier way. In the identity (a - b)² = (a² + b² - 2ab), we put a = 100, and b = 1. This gives us: 992 = (100 - 1)² = (100² + 1² - 2 x 100 x 1) = 10000 + 1 - 200 = 9801. As you can see, this is very quick, and more likely to help us avoid errors. In the next chapter, you will look at multiple practice problems that extend this concept, with detailed solutions available for each.

The Identity (a - b)² = (a² + b² - 2ab): Practice Problems Detailed solutions can be found in the next chapter.

Solutions: The Identity (a - b)² = (a² + b² - 2ab): Practice Problems

1. Please find the value of 9998², by using algebraic identities to simplify computation. -Solution: Since 9998 is only a little lower than 10000, we can deduce that the identity (a - b)² = (a² + b² - 2ab) is to be used, with some appropriately chosen values of a and b. To do this particular computation, we put a = 10000 and b = 2. After the substitution, we get 9998² = (10000 - 2)² = 10000² + 2² - (2 x 10000 x 2) = 100000000 + 4 - 40000 = 99960004. ---2. What is the value of 2953² + 1953² - (2953 x 3906)? Please use algebraic identities to make the computation simple. -Solution: First, we note that 3906 = 2 x 1953. Using this fact, we can rewrite the given expression as 2953² + 1953² - (2 x 2953 x 1953). Comparing this with the Right Hand Side of the identity (a - b)² = (a² + b² - 2ab), we get 2953² + 1953² - (2953 x 3906) = 2953² + 1953² - (2 x 2953 x 1953) = (2953 1953)² = 1000² = 1000000. ---3. What is the value of [4437² + 1630² - 2807²] / [8874]? -Solution: First, we look at the three numbers under the square signs in the numerator: 4437, 1630, and 2807. We note that 2807 = 4437 - 1630. We also note, in the denominator, that 8874 = 2 x 4437. Hence, we can guess that the algebraic identity (a - b)² = (a² + b² - 2ab) is to be used, but we will need to rearrange the terms of this identity to get something that will help us with our expression. After some trial and error, we note that [a² + b² - (a - b)²] / 2a = b. In this rearranged equation, we put a = 4437, and b = 1630, to get [(4437² + 1630² - (4437 - 1630)²] / 8874 = [4437² + 1630² - 2807²] / 8874 = 1630. The Left Hand Side of this equation is exactly the expression in our question, so

the value of that expression is equal to 1630. ---4. What is the positive square root of [179² + 50² - 17900]? -Solution: By observation, we can deduce that the given expression looks a little like the LHS of the identity (a - b)² = (a² + b² - 2ab). Indeed, if we set a = 179, and b = 50, we see that 2ab = 17900, which is exactly equal to the absolute value of the third term in the expression. Hence, we can say that [179² + 50² - 17900] = [179 - 50]². Therefore, the positive square root of the expression given is equal to [179 50] = 129. ----

The Identity (a + b)(a - b) = (a² - b²): Basic Theory To find the value of (a + b)(a - b), we can just multiply out the terms: (a + b)(a - b) = a (a - b) + b (a - b) = a² - ab + ab - b² = a² - b². How to use this identity to make certain calculations easier If we had to find the value of 101 x 99, we could either multiply it out, or use the identity. Putting a = 100, and b = 1, in the given identity, we get: (a + b)(a - b) = (a² - b²) (100 + 1)(100 - 1) = (100² - 1²) 101 x 99 = 10000 - 1 = 9999 We have achieved our result with minimal effort. In the next chapter, we will look at solved problems.

What is the value of the positive square root of [(630 + 279)(630 - 279) + 77841]? --

Solutions: The Identity (a + b)(a - b) = (a² - b²): Practice Problems

1. Evaluate the expression (805² - 195²), by using algebraic identities to simplify computation. -Solution: The expression's form suggests that we use the identity (a² - b²) = (a + b)(a - b). To simplify this particular expression, we set a = 805 and b = 195 in the difference-of-squares identity. We then get (805² - 195²) = (805 + 195)(805 - 195). The Right Hand Side of this equation can be simplified to 1000 x 610 = 610000. ---2. Evaluate the expression (10001² - 9999²), by using algebraic identities to simplify computation. -Solution: The expression's form suggests that we use the identity (a² - b²) = (a + b)(a - b). To simplify this particular expression, we set a = 10001 and b = 9999 in the difference-of-squares identity. We then get (10001² - 9999²) = (10001 + 9999)(10001 - 9999). The Right Hand Side of this equation simplifies to 20000 x 2 = 40000. ---3. Find the value of (1001 x 999), by using algebraic identities to simplify the calculation. -Solution: We observe that both 1001 and 999 are close in value to 1000. We can rewrite the expression (1001 x 999) as (1000 + 1)(1000 - 1). Next, we use the identity (a² - b²) = (a + b)(a - b). Using this, we get (1000 + 1)(1000 - 1) = 1000² - 1². This is relatively easy to compute; we have 1000² - 1² = 1000000 - 1 = 999999. ----

4. What is the value of the positive square root of [(630 + 279)(630 - 279) + 77841]? -Solution: First, we note that the number 77841 looks approximately like the square of 279. We can verify this through a quick computation. Therefore, the given expression can be rewritten as [(630 + 279)(630 - 279) + 77841] = [(630 + 279)(630 - 279) + 279²]. Now, we use the identity (a² - b²) = (a + b)(a - b) to rewrite the expression as [(630 + 279)(630 - 279) + 279²] = [630² - 279² + 279²]. The second and third terms cancel, so the expression is just equal to 630². Clearly, the square root of the expression is equal to 630. ----

Solutions: The Identity (a + b)² = (a² + b² + 2ab): Challenges Many more challenging questions on this topic can be found later in this book.

1. Please find the value of 503², by using algebraic identities to simplify computation. -Solution: Since 503 is only a little higher than 500, we can deduce that the identity (a + b)² = (a² + b² + 2ab) is to be used, with some appropriately chosen values of a and b. To do this particular computation, we put a = 500 and b = 3. After the substitution, we get 503² = (500 + 3)² = 500² + 3² + (2 x 500 x 3) = 250000 + 9 + 3000 = 253009. ---2. What is the value of 0.48² + 6.52² + (0.48 x 13.04)? Please use algebraic identities to make the computation simple. -Solution: First, we note that 13.04 = 2 x 6.52. Using this fact, we can rewrite the given expression as 0.48² + 6.52² + (2 x 0.48 x 6.52). Comparing this with the Right Hand Side of the identity (a + b)² = (a² + b² + 2ab), we get 0.48² + 6.52² + (0.48 x 13.04) = 0.48² + 6.52² + (2 x 0.48 x 6.52) = (0.48 + 6.52)² = 7² = 49. ---3. What is the value of [184.33² - 101.47² - 82.86²] / [202.94]? -Solution: First, we look at the three numbers under the square signs in the numerator: 184.33, 101.47, and 82.86. We note that 184.33 = 101.47 + 82.86. We also note, in the denominator, that 202.94 = 2 x 101.47. Hence, we can guess that the algebraic identity (a + b)² = (a² + b² + 2ab) is to be used, but we will need to rearrange the terms of this identity to get something that will help us with our expression. After some trial and error, we note that [(a + b)² - a² - b²] / 2a = b. In this rearranged equation, we put a = 101.47, and b = 82.86, to get [(101.47 + 82.86)² - 101.47² - 82.86²] / 202.94 = [184.33² - 101.47² - 82.86²] / 202.94

= 82.86. The Left Hand Side of this equation is exactly the expression in our question, so the value of that expression is equal to 82.86. ---4. What is the square root of [33.3² + 61.3² + 4082.58]? -Solution: By observation, we can deduce that the given expression looks a little like the LHS of the identity (a + b)² = (a² + b² + 2ab). Indeed, if we set a = 33.3, and b = 61.3, we see that 2ab = 4082.58, which is exactly equal to the absolute value of the third term in the expression. Hence, we can say that [33.3² + 61.3² + 4082.58] = [33.3 + 61.3]². Therefore, the square root of the expression given is equal to [33.3 + 61.3] = 94.6. ----

1. Please find the value of 698², by using algebraic identities to simplify computation. -Solution: Since 698 is only a little lower than 700, we can deduce that the identity (a - b)² = (a² + b² - 2ab) is to be used, with some appropriately chosen values of a and b. To do this particular computation, we put a = 700 and b = 2. After the substitution, we get 698² = (700 - 2)² = 700² + 2² - (2 x 700 x 2) = 490000 + 4 - 2800 = 487204. ---2. What is the value of 2.295² + 1.695² - (2.295 x 3.39)? Please use algebraic identities to make the computation simple. -Solution: First, we note that 3.39 = 2 x 1.695. Using this fact, we can rewrite the given expression as 2.295² + 1.695² - (2 x 2.295 x 1.695). Comparing this with the Right Hand Side of the identity (a - b)² = (a² + b² 2ab), we get 2.295² + 1.695² - (2.295 x 3.39) = 2.295² + 1.695² - (2 x 2.295 x 1.695) = (2.295 - 1.695)² = 0.6² = 0.36. ---3. What is the value of [567.2² + 156.6² - 410.6²] / [1134.4]? -Solution: First, we look at the three numbers under the square signs in the numerator: 567.2, 156.6, and 410.6. We note that 410.6 = 567.2 - 156.6. We also note, in the denominator, that 1134.4 = 2 x 567.2. Hence, we can guess that the algebraic identity (a - b)² = (a² + b² - 2ab) is to be used, but we will need to rearrange the terms of this identity to get something that will help us with our expression. After some trial and error, we note that [a² + b² - (a - b)²] / 2a = b. In this rearranged equation, we put a = 567.2, and b = 156.6, to get [(567.2² + 156.6² - (567.2 - 156.6)²] / 1134.4 = [567.2² + 156.6² - 410.6²] / 1134.4 =

156.6. The Left Hand Side of this equation is exactly the expression in our question, so the value of that expression is equal to 156.6. ---4. What is the positive square root of [1722² + 90² - 309960]? -Solution: By observation, we can deduce that the given expression looks a little like the LHS of the identity (a - b)² = (a² + b² - 2ab). Indeed, if we set a = 1722, and b = 90, we see that 2ab = 309960, which is exactly equal to the absolute value of the third term in the expression. Hence, we can say that [1722² + 90² - 309960] = [1722 - 90]². Therefore, the positive square root of the expression given is equal to [1722 90] = 1632. ----

1. Evaluate the expression (7826² - 2174²), by using algebraic identities to simplify computation. -Solution: The expression's form suggests that we use the identity (a² - b²) = (a + b)(a - b). To simplify this particular expression, we set a = 7826 and b = 2174 in the difference-of-squares identity. We then get (7826² - 2174²) = (7826 + 2174)(7826 - 2174). The Right Hand Side of this equation can be simplified to 10000 x 5652 = 56520000. ---2. Evaluate the expression (8004² - 7996²), by using algebraic identities to simplify computation. -Solution: The expression's form suggests that we use the identity (a² - b²) = (a + b)(a - b). To simplify this particular expression, we set a = 8004 and b = 7996 in the difference-of-squares identity. We then get (8004² - 7996²) = (8004 + 7996)(8004 - 7996). The Right Hand Side of this equation can be simplified to 16000 x 8 = 128000. ---3. Find the value of (4008 x 3992), by using algebraic identities to simplify the calculation. -Solution: We observe that both 4008 and 3992 are close in value to 4000. We can rewrite the expression (4008 x 3992) as (4000 + 8)(4000 - 8). Next, we use the identity (a² - b²) = (a + b)(a - b). Using this, we get (4000 + 8)(4000 - 8) = 4000² - 8². This is relatively easy to compute; we have 4000² - 8² = 16000000 - 64 = 15999936.

---4. What is the value of the positive square root of [(810 + 134)(810 - 134) + 17956]? -Solution: First, we note that the number 17956 looks approximately like the square of 134. We can verify this through a quick computation. Therefore, the given expression can be rewritten as [(810 + 134)(810 - 134) + 17956] = [(810 + 134)(810 - 134) + 134²]. Now, we use the identity (a² - b²) = (a + b)(a - b) to rewrite the expression as [(810 + 134)(810 - 134) + 134²] = [810² - 134² + 134²]. The second and third terms cancel, so the expression is just equal to 810². Clearly, the square root of the expression is equal to 810. ----

Solutions: Detailed Drills

1. Please find the value of 4001², by using algebraic identities to simplify computation. -Solution: Since 4001 is only a little higher than 4000, we can deduce that the identity (a + b)² = (a² + b² + 2ab) is to be used, with some appropriately chosen values of a and b. To do this particular computation, we put a = 4000 and b = 1. After the substitution, we get 4001² = (4000 + 1)² = 4000² + 1² + (2 x 4000 x 1) = 16000000 + 1 + 8000 = 16008001. ---2. What is the value of 0.575² + 0.425² + (0.575 x 0.85)? Please use algebraic identities to make the computation simple. -Solution: First, we note that 0.85 = 2 x 0.425. Using this fact, we can rewrite the given expression as 0.575² + 0.425² + (2 x 0.575 x 0.425). Comparing this with the Right Hand Side of the identity (a + b)² = (a² + b² + 2ab), we get 0.575² + 0.425² + (0.575 x 0.85) = 0.575² + 0.425² + (2 x 0.575 x 0.425) = (0.575 + 0.425)² = 1² = 1. ---3. What is the value of [222.6² - 113.84² - 108.76²] / [227.68]? -Solution: First, we look at the three numbers under the square signs in the numerator: 222.6, 113.84, and 108.76. We note that 222.6 = 113.84 + 108.76. We also note, in the denominator, that 227.68 = 2 x 113.84. Hence, we can guess that the algebraic identity (a + b)² = (a² + b² + 2ab) is to be used, but we will need to rearrange the terms of this identity to get something that will help us with our expression. After some trial and error, we note that [(a + b)² - a² - b²] / 2a = b. In this rearranged equation, we put a = 113.84, and b = 108.76, to get [(113.84 + 108.76)² - 113.84² - 108.76²] / 227.68 = [222.6² - 113.84² 108.76²] / 227.68 = 108.76. The Left Hand Side of this equation is exactly

the expression in our question, so the value of that expression is equal to 108.76. ---4. What is the square root of [42.8² + 38.5² + 3295.6]? -Solution: By observation, we can deduce that the given expression looks a little like the LHS of the identity (a + b)² = (a² + b² + 2ab). Indeed, if we set a = 42.8, and b = 38.5, we see that 2ab = 3295.6, which is exactly equal to the absolute value of the third term in the expression. Hence, we can say that [42.8² + 38.5² + 3295.6] = [42.8 + 38.5]². Therefore, the square root of the expression given is equal to [42.8 + 38.5] = 81.3. ---5. Please find the value of 70002², by using algebraic identities to simplify computation. -Solution: Since 70002 is only a little higher than 70000, we can deduce that the identity (a + b)² = (a² + b² + 2ab) is to be used, with some appropriately chosen values of a and b. To do this particular computation, we put a = 70000 and b = 2. After the substitution, we get 70002² = (70000 + 2)² = 70000² + 2² + (2 x 70000 x 2) = 4900000000 + 4 + 280000 = 4900280004. ---6. What is the value of 0.447² + 7.553² + (0.447 x 15.106)? Please use algebraic identities to make the computation simple. -Solution: First, we note that 15.106 = 2 x 7.553. Using this fact, we can rewrite the given expression as 0.447² + 7.553² + (2 x 0.447 x 7.553). Comparing this with the Right Hand Side of the identity (a + b)² = (a² + b² + 2ab), we get 0.447² + 7.553² + (0.447 x 15.106) = 0.447² + 7.553² + (2 x 0.447 x 7.553) = (0.447 + 7.553)² = 8² = 64. ---7. What is the value of [127.08² - 52.72² - 74.36²] / [105.44]? -Solution: First, we look at the three numbers under the square signs in the numerator: 127.08, 52.72, and 74.36. We note that 127.08 = 52.72 + 74.36.

We also note, in the denominator, that 105.44 = 2 x 52.72. Hence, we can guess that the algebraic identity (a + b)² = (a² + b² + 2ab) is to be used, but we will need to rearrange the terms of this identity to get something that will help us with our expression. After some trial and error, we note that [(a + b)² - a² - b²] / 2a = b. In this rearranged equation, we put a = 52.72, and b = 74.36, to get [(52.72 + 74.36)² - 52.72² - 74.36²] / 105.44 = [127.08² - 52.72² - 74.36²] / 105.44 = 74.36. The Left Hand Side of this equation is exactly the expression in our question, so the value of that expression is equal to 74.36. ---8. What is the square root of [55.3² + 79.6² + 8803.76]? -Solution: By observation, we can deduce that the given expression looks a little like the LHS of the identity (a + b)² = (a² + b² + 2ab). Indeed, if we set a = 55.3, and b = 79.6, we see that 2ab = 8803.76, which is exactly equal to the absolute value of the third term in the expression. Hence, we can say that [55.3² + 79.6² + 8803.76] = [55.3 + 79.6]². Therefore, the square root of the expression given is equal to [55.3 + 79.6] = 134.9. ---9. Please find the value of 7001², by using algebraic identities to simplify computation. -Solution: Since 7001 is only a little higher than 7000, we can deduce that the identity (a + b)² = (a² + b² + 2ab) is to be used, with some appropriately chosen values of a and b. To do this particular computation, we put a = 7000 and b = 1. After the substitution, we get 7001² = (7000 + 1)² = 7000² + 1² + (2 x 7000 x 1) = 49000000 + 1 + 14000 = 49014001. ---10. What is the value of 0.461² + 8.539² + (0.461 x 17.078)? Please use algebraic identities to make the computation simple. -Solution: First, we note that 17.078 = 2 x 8.539. Using this fact, we can rewrite the given expression as 0.461² + 8.539² + (2 x 0.461 x 8.539). Comparing this with the Right Hand Side of the identity (a + b)² = (a² + b² + 2ab), we get 0.461² + 8.539² + (0.461 x 17.078) = 0.461² + 8.539² + (2 x

0.461 x 8.539) = (0.461 + 8.539)² = 9² = 81. ---11. What is the value of [170.52² - 113.14² - 57.38²] / [226.28]? -Solution: First, we look at the three numbers under the square signs in the numerator: 170.52, 113.14, and 57.38. We note that 170.52 = 113.14 + 57.38. We also note, in the denominator, that 226.28 = 2 x 113.14. Hence, we can guess that the algebraic identity (a + b)² = (a² + b² + 2ab) is to be used, but we will need to rearrange the terms of this identity to get something that will help us with our expression.
