We will do questions of these identities
- Identity VI - (a + b) 3 = a 3 + b 3 + 3ab(a + b)
- Identity VII - (a − b) 3 = a 3 - b 3 - 3ab(a - b)

Lets take an example
Identity VI - (a + b) 3 = a 3 + b 3 + 3ab(a + b)
(2 + 3) 3 = 2 3 + 3 3 + 3(2)(3) (2 + 3)
(5) 3 = 8 + 27 + 18 × 5
125 = 8 + 27 + 90
125 = 125
Identity VII - (a − b)3 = a3 - b3 - 3ab(a - b)
(2 – 3)3 = 23 – 33 – 3(2)(3) (2 – 3)
(–1)3 = 8 – 27 – 18 × (–1)
–1 = 8 – 27 + 18
–1 = 26 – 27
–1 = –1
