To factor the given polynomials using the difference of squares, we will look for expressions of the form \( a^2 - b^2 \), which can be factored as \( (a - b)(a + b) \).
Here are the factorizations for the given binomials:
1. **Binomial:** \( 4x^2 - 36 \)
- **Factorization:** \( 2(x - 3)(x + 3) \)
2. **Binomial:** \( 9 - 25x^2 \)
- **Factorization:** \( (3 - 5x)(3 + 5x) \)
3. **Binomial:** \( 4x^2 + 36 \)
- **Factorization:** Not a difference of squares (cannot be factored using this method).
4. **Binomial:** \( 9x^2 - 25 \)
- **Factorization:** \( (3x - 5)(3x + 5) \)
5. **Binomial:** \( 81 - 49x^2 \)
- **Factorization:** \( (9 - 7x)(9 + 7x) \)
6. **Binomial:** \( 81x^2 - 49 \)
- **Factorization:** \( (9x - 7)(9x + 7) \)
To summarize:
- \( 4x^2 - 36 = 2(x - 3)(x + 3) \)
- \( 9 - 25x^2 = (3 - 5x)(3 + 5x) \)
- \( 4x^2 + 36 \) cannot be factored using difference of squares.
- \( 9x^2 - 25 = (3x - 5)(3x + 5) \)
- \( 81 - 49x^2 = (9 - 7x)(9 + 7x) \)
- \( 81x^2 - 49 = (9x - 7)(9x + 7) \)
