Answer 1

The highest common factor is (a + b)

Explanation:

We start by making a factorization of the first expression

By using the difference of two squares, we can have it as;

a^2 - b^2 = (a + b)(a-b)

For the second expression, we already have;

(a + b)^2 = (a + b)(a + b)

What this mean is that (a + b) is common to both expressions and we have it as the highest common factor
