Key concepts: We Distribute, Yet Things Multiply (Class 8 Mathematics)
This chapter turns the distributive property into a powerful tool for multiplying and for quick mental arithmetic. From a(b + c) = ab + ac you build the products of binomials and three key algebraic identities — the square of a sum, the square of a difference, and the product of a sum and a difference. Area diagrams show why each identity is true, and you use them both to expand expressions and to compute numbers like 65², 998² and 53 × 47 in your head, while avoiding common expansion mistakes.
- Distributive property
- Multiplication spreads over addition: a × (b + c) = a×b + a×c. It is the rule behind every expansion of brackets, e.g. 6 × 13 = 6×10 + 6×3.
- Algebraic expression and terms
- A combination of numbers and letters joined by + or −, such as 3x + 5; each part (3x, 5) is a term, and the number multiplying a letter is its coefficient.
- Like terms
- Terms with exactly the same letters and powers, such as 3x and 5x, which can be added or subtracted: 3x + 5x − 2x = 6x.
- Expanding a product of binomials
- Each term of the first bracket multiplies each term of the second: (a + b)(c + d) = ac + ad + bc + bd.
