Evaluate Using Identity
\[ 991 \times 1009 \]
Solution:
Using identity:
\[ (a-b)(a+b)=a^2-b^2 \]
\[ 991 \times 1009 = (1000-9)(1000+9) \]
\[ = (1000)^2 – (9)^2 \]
\[ = 1000000 – 81 \]
\[ = 999919 \]
\[ 991 \times 1009 \]
Using identity:
\[ (a-b)(a+b)=a^2-b^2 \]
\[ 991 \times 1009 = (1000-9)(1000+9) \]
\[ = (1000)^2 – (9)^2 \]
\[ = 1000000 – 81 \]
\[ = 999919 \]
