Algebra Formula

When as students we started learning


mathematics, it was all about numbers.
Natural numbers, whole numbers,
integrals. Then we started learning about
mathematical functions like addition,
subtraction, BODMAS and so on. And
then suddenly from class 8 onwards or so,
mathematics had alphabets and letters!
And so our introduction to algebra began.
Today, we will focus on algebra and
algebra formula. Let’s get started!

Introduction to Algebra
Mathematics is a vast field. It is
impossible for one person to know
everything there is to know in
mathematics, even after a lifetime of
study. And while it can be cumbersome,
mathematics is also one of the most
important fields of study. Right from how
much to tip the waiter to when the
universe began, all answers can be found
due to the application of maths.

As we approach the higher classes, we


see our introduction to algebra. In
algebra, we substitute numbers with
letters or alphabets to arrive at a solution.
We use these letters like (x, a, b etc.) to
represent unknown quantities in an
equation. Then we solve the equation or
algebra formula to arrive at a definite
answer.

Algebra itself is divided into two major


fields. The more basic functions that we
learn in school are known as elementary
algebra. Then the more advanced algebra
formula, which is more abstract in nature
fall under modern algebra, sometimes
even known as abstract algebra.

Algebra Formula
Algebra includes both numbers and
letters. Numbers are fixed, i.e. their value
is known. Letters or alphabets are used to
represent the unknown quantities in the
algebra formula. Now, a combination of
numbers, letters, factorials, matrices etc.
is used to form an equation or formula.
This is essentially the methodology for
algebra.

As students study for their exams, there


are certain very important algebra
formulas and equations that they must
learn. These formulas are the cornerstone
of basic or elementary algebra. Only
learning the formulas is not sufficient.
The students must also understand the
concept behind the formula and learn to
apply them correctly.

Here, we will provide a list of all the


important algebra formulas. The
comprehensive list will allow the students
to have a quick look before exams or
refer to whenever they wish. Remember,
only rote learning is not enough. You
must also know how to effectively apply
these formulas to a problem.

a² – b² = (a-b)(a+b)

(a+b)² = a² + 2ab + b²

(a-b)² = a² – 2ab + b²

a² + b² = (a-b)² +2ab

(a+b+c)² =
a²+b²+c²+2ab+2ac+2bc

(a-b-c)² = a²+b²+c²-2ab-
2ac+2bc

a³-b³ = (a-b) (a² + ab + b²)

a³+b³ = (a+b) (a² – ab + b²)

(a+b)³ = a³+ 3a²b + 3ab² + b³

(a-b)³ = a³- 3a²b + 3ab² – b³

“n” is a natural number, an – bn


= (a-b) (an-1 + an-2b +….bn-2a +
bn-1)

“n” is a even number, an + bn =


(a+b) (an-1 – an-2b +….+ bn-2a –
bn-1)

“n” is an odd number an + bn =


(a-b) (an-1 – an-2b +…. – bn-2a
+ bn-1)

(am)(an) = am+n (ab)m = amn

Q: Find the value of 17² – 4²

Ans: Now these are simple numbers, so


we can calculate the answer. But the
correct method is to apply the formula,

a² – b² = (a-b)(a+b)

17² – 4² = (17-4)(17+4) = 13 × 21 = 273
