Square Formulas
- (a + b) 2 = a 2 + b 2 + 2ab
- (a − b) 2 = a 2 + b 2 − 2ab
- a 2 − b 2 = (a − b) (a + b)
- (x + a) (x + b) = x 2 + (a + b) x + ab
- (a + b + c) 2 = a 2 + b 2 + c 2 + 2ab + 2bc + 2ca

Cube Formulas
- (a + b) 3 = a 3 + b 3 + 3ab(a + b)
- (a − b) 3 = a 3 - b 3 - 3ab(a - b)
- a 3 − b 3 = (a − b) (a 2 + b 2 + ab)
- a 3 + b 3 = (a + b) (a 2 + b 2 − ab)
- (a + b + c) 3 = a 3 + b 3 + c 3 + 3(a + b)(b + c)(c + a)
- a 3 + b 3 + c 3 − 3abc = (a + b + c) (a 2 + b 2 + c 2 − ab − bc − ac)
-
If (a + b + c) = 0,
a 3 + b 3 + c 3 = 3abc
