Full solution

Q. If x2a=(x3)(x+3)x^{2}-a=(x-3)(x+3), then a=a=
  1. Expand Equation: Step 11: Expand the right-hand side of the equation.\newline(x3)(x+3)=x29(x - 3)(x + 3) = x^2 - 9
  2. Set Equal: Step 22: Set the expanded form equal to the left-hand side.\newlinex2a=x29x^2 - a = x^2 - 9
  3. Subtract to Isolate: Step 33: Subtract x2x^2 from both sides to isolate 'a'.\newlinea=9-a = -9
  4. Multiply to Solve: Step 44: Multiply both sides by 1-1 to solve for aa.a=9a = 9
