Explain how the distributive property helps us multiply the following polynomials and why and how the final products differ:
● (a + b)^2,
● (a – b)^2, and
(a - b)(a + b).

I've done this way to make it easier to understand:

Using the distributive property, multipliying , ,

, and :

It is the same for

and

1/4 and 8/3 because:

the reciprocal if 4 is 1/4 because 4 is used as 4/1 and the opposite of that is 1/4. the opposite of 3/8 is 8/3 so that is the answer.
