Select a suitable identity and find the following products

(2b – a) (2b + c)

Given: (2b – a) (2b + c),it is a product of 2 binomial expressions which have the terms (2b – a) (2b + c).

Now when we compare these expressions with the identities, we

find it in the form of (x-a)(x + b),where x = 2b and a = a and b = c,

Thus,(x-a)(x + b) = x² + bx-ax-ab = x² + x(b-a)-ab

Hence, (2b – a) (2b + c) = (2b)² + 2b(c-a)-ac = 4b² + 2b(c-a)-ac
