Find the following products:$ \left(x^{2}-1\right)\left(x^{4}+x^{2}+1\right) $

Given: 

\( \left(x^{2}-1\right)\left(x^{4}+x^{2}+1\right) \)

To do: 

We have to find the given product.

Solution: 

We know that,

$a^{3}+b^{3}=(a+b)(a^{2}-a b+b^{2})$

$a^{3}-b^{3}=(a-b)(a^{2}+a b+b^{2})$

Therefore,

$(x^{2}-1)(x^{4}+x^{2}+1)=(x^{2}-1)[(x^{2})^{2}+x^{2} \times 1+(1)^{2}]$

$=(x^{2})^{3}-(1)^{3}$

$=x^{6}-1$

 Hence, $(x^{2}-1)(x^{4}+x^{2}+1)=x^{6}-1$.
