1. (i) (x + 4)(x + 10) = x² + (4 + 10)x + 4 × 10 [∵ (x + a)(x + b) = x² + (a + b)x + ab ] = x² + 14x + 40

    (i) (x + 4)(x + 10)
    = x² + (4 + 10)x + 4 × 10 [∵ (x + a)(x + b) = x² + (a + b)x + ab ]
    = x² + 14x + 40

  2. (ii) (x + 8)(x + -10) = x² + (8 - 10)x + 8 × (-10) [∵ (x + a)(x + b) = x² + (a + b)x + ab ] = x² - 2x - 80

    (ii) (x + 8)(x + -10)
    = x² + (8 – 10)x + 8 × (-10) [∵ (x + a)(x + b) = x² + (a + b)x + ab ]
    = x² – 2x – 80

  3. (iii) (3x + 4)(3x - 5) = (3x)² + (4 - 5)3x + 4 × (-5) [∵ (x + a)(x + b) = x² + (a + b)x + ab ] = 9x² - 3x - 20

    (iii) (3x + 4)(3x – 5)
    = (3x)² + (4 – 5)3x + 4 × (-5) [∵ (x + a)(x + b) = x² + (a + b)x + ab ]
    = 9x² – 3x – 20

  4. (iv) (y² + 3/2)(y² - 3/2) = (y²)² - (3/2)² [∵ (a + b)(a - b) = a² - b²] = y⁴ - 9/4

    (iv) (y² + 3/2)(y² – 3/2)
    = (y²)² – (3/2)² [∵ (a + b)(a – b) = a² – b²]
    = y⁴ – 9/4

  5. (v) (3 - 2x)(3 + 2x) = (3)² - (2x)² [∵ (a + b)(a - b) = a² - b²] = 9 - 4x²

    (v) (3 – 2x)(3 + 2x)
    = (3)² – (2x)² [∵ (a + b)(a – b) = a² – b²]
    = 9 – 4x²
