Find the following products:
$\left(x^{2}-1\right)\left(x^{4}+x^{2}+1\right)$
Option A
Option B
Option C
Option D
Solution
$\left(x^{2}-1\right)\left(x^{4}+x^{2}+1\right)=\left(x^{2}-1\right)\left\{\left(x^{2}\right)^{2}+\left(x^{2}\right)(1)+(1)^{2}\right\}$
$=\left(x^{2}\right)^{3}-(1)^{3}$ $\quad\left[\because(a-b)\left(a^{2}+a b+b\right)^{2}=a^{3}-b^{3}\right]$
$=x^{6}-1$
