| ① | Find $ \left(w-b\right)^2 $ using formula. $$ (A - B)^2 = \color{blue}{A^2} - 2 \cdot A \cdot B + \color{red}{B^2} $$where $ A = \color{blue}{ w } $ and $ B = \color{red}{ b }$. $$ \begin{aligned}\left(w-b\right)^2 = \color{blue}{w^2} -2 \cdot w \cdot b + \color{red}{b^2} = w^2-2bw+b^2\end{aligned} $$ |
| ② | Combine like terms: $$ b^2-2bw+w^2 = b^2-2bw+w^2 $$ |
