NCERT Class 9 Maths Lab Manual – Verify the Algebraic Identity a³+b³ = (a+b) (a²-ab+b²)

NCERT Class 9 Maths Lab Manual – Verify the Algebraic Identity a³+b³ = (a+b) (a²-ab+b²)

OBJECTIVE

To verify the algebraic identity a³+b³ = (a+b) (a²-ab+b²).

Materials Required

  1. Acrylic sheets
  2. Geometry box
  3. Adhesive/Cello-tape
  4. Cutter
  5. Scissors

Prereequisite Knowledge

  1. Concept of cuboid and its volume.
  2. Concept of cube and its volume.

Theory

  1. For concept of cuboid and its volume refer to Activity 7.
  2. For concept of cube and its volume refer to Activity 7.

Procedure

  1. Make a cube of side a units and another cube of side b units by using acrylic sheets and cello-tape/adhesive, (see Fig. 9.1 and 9.2)

  3. Make a cuboid of dimensions a x b x b using acrylic sheet and cello-tape/adhesive, (see Fig. 9.4)
    NCERT Class 9 Maths Lab Manual - Verify the Algebraic Identity a³+b³ = (a+b) (a²-ab+b²) 3
  4. Arrange these cubes and cuboids as shown in Fig. 9.5.
    NCERT Class 9 Maths Lab Manual - Verify the Algebraic Identity a³+b³ = (a+b) (a²-ab+b²) 4
  5. On removing cuboids of dimensions a x a x b and a x b x b from the solid obtained in Fig. 9.5, to get another solid as shown in Fig. 9.6.
    NCERT Class 9 Maths Lab Manual - Verify the Algebraic Identity a³+b³ = (a+b) (a²-ab+b²) 5

Demonstration
In Fig. 9.1, volume of cube of side a units = a³
In Fig. 9.2, volume of cube of side b units = b³
In Fig. 9.3, volume of cuboid of dimensions a, a and b = a²b
In Fig. 9.4, volume of cuboid of dimensions a, b and b = ab²
Volume of the solid obtained in Fig. 9.5 = Total volume of all cubes and cuboids
= a³ + b³ +ab² +a²b = a²(a + b) + b²(a + b)
= (a + b) (a² + b²)
After removing cuboids of volume a²b (i.e. a x a x b) and ab² (i .e. a x b x b) from solid obtained in Fig. 9.6.
So, volume of solid in Fig. 9.6 = (a + b) (a² + b²)- a²b – ab²
= (a + b) (a² + b² )-ab (a + b) = (a+ b) (a² + b² – ab) Also, volume of solid in Fig. 9.6 = a³ + b³ Hence, a³+b³ = (a+b) (a²-ab+b²).
Here, volume is in cubic units.

Observation
On actual measurement, we get
a = ……….. , b = ……….. ,
So, a³ = ……….. , b³ = ……….. , a + b = ……….. ,
(a + b) a² = ……….. ,  (a + b)b² = ……….. ,
a²b = ……….. , ab² = ……….. ,
ab(a + b) = ……….. ,
Hence, a³+b³ = (a+b) (a²-ab+b²).

Result
The algebraic identity a³+b³ = (a+b) (a²-ab+b²) has been verified.

Application
The identity can be used in simplification and factorization of algebraic expressions.
