\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "You can see that the 1st 3 terms are in the form of a^2 - 2ab + b^2, which is\r\n" );
document.write( "(a - b)^2\r\n" );
document.write( "So it can be first written as\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Now this is of the form a^2 - b^2, which is (a+b)*(a-b)\r\n" );
document.write( " =\r\n" );
document.write( " =\r\n" );
document.write( " which is the final factorization.\r\n" );
document.write( "Hope you got it :)\r\n" );
