(a+b)*(a-b)=0

Solution for (a+b)*(a-b)=0 equation:

Simplifying
(a + b)(a + -1b) = 0

Multiply (a + b) * (a + -1b)
(a(a + -1b) + b(a + -1b)) = 0
((a * a + -1b * a) + b(a + -1b)) = 0

Reorder the terms:
((-1ab + a2) + b(a + -1b)) = 0
((-1ab + a2) + b(a + -1b)) = 0
(-1ab + a2 + (a * b + -1b * b)) = 0
(-1ab + a2 + (ab + -1b2)) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(-1ab + ab + a2 + -1b2) = 0

Combine like terms: -1ab + ab = 0
(0 + a2 + -1b2) = 0
(a2 + -1b2) = 0

Solving
a2 + -1b2 = 0

Solving for variable 'a'.

Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add 'b2' to each side of the equation.
a2 + -1b2 + b2 = 0 + b2

Combine like terms: -1b2 + b2 = 0
a2 + 0 = 0 + b2
a2 = 0 + b2
Remove the zero:
a2 = b2

Simplifying
a2 = b2

Take the square root of each side:
a = {-1b, b}
