1. Write as an expression: the sum of the squares of a and b
2. Write as an expression: the difference of the squares of m and n.​

Answer 1

(
`a^(2)` +
`b^(2)`)

(
`m^(2)` -
`n^(2)`)

Explanation:

1. Write as an expression: the sum of the squares of a and b

It is asking to square each a and b and then add them

(
`a^(2)` +
`b^(2)`)

2. Write as an expression: the difference of the squares of m and n.​
