 2.1      Factoring:  j24909884-15 

Theory : A difference of two perfect squares,  A2 - B2  can be factored into  (A+B) • (A-B)

Proof :  (A+B) • (A-B) =
         A2 - AB + BA - B2 =
         A2 - AB + AB - B2 =
         A2 - B2

Note :  AB = BA is the commutative property of multiplication.

Note :  - AB + AB equals zero and is therefore eliminated from the expression.

Check : 15 is not a square !!

Ruling : Binomial can not be factored as the difference of two perfect squares.

Final result :

  j24909884 - 15
