Why is (n-1)(n+1)=n^2-1?

Does the U.S military really prosecute military staff for cheating on their spouse, or do they close one eye if the cheating does not involve other military personnel since adultery is fairly common? Adultery is illegal in U.S military

n^2 - 1

And you are left with almost a square. One less than the square of side n.

Who is the most trusted person in your life, and do they have the same trust on you?

Move the nub up to the top:

(n - 1)(n + 1)

n^2 - n + n - 1

The more direct answer is to look at a rectangle with sides of n + 1 and n - 1, let’s go with n = 2

What is the funniest husband-wife comedy team ever: Abbott & Costello, Martin & Lewis, Burns & Allen or something else entirely?

If you cut off the end of that rectangle, you make it smaller, 2 * 3 and a separate nub of size 1 * 2

So, that’s a rectangle with sides 2 and 4.

I am interested in gang stalking tactics. How do covert agents use street theater and false narratives to torment targeted individuals?
