What is the product of x and y if x\(^2\) + y\(^2\) = 36 – 2xy and x\(^2\) – y\(^2\) = 12?

    x2 + y2 = 36 - 2xy 

    => ( x +y )2 = 36 

    => x+y = 6 or -6

    x2-y2= 12 

    => (x+y)(x-y) =12 

    If x+y = 6 (1)

    => x-y = 2 (2)

    (1),(2)=> x=4;y=2 => xy=6

    If x+y = -6 (1)

    => x-y = -2 (2)

    (1),(2)=> x=-4; y=-2

    => xy = 6

    x2 + y2 = 36 - 2xy

    => x2 + 2xy + y2 = 36

    => (x+y)2 = 36

    => x + y = 6 or -6

    x2 - y2 = 12 

    => (x+y)(x-y) = 12

    => \(\left[{}\begin{matrix}6\left(x-y\right)=12\\-6\left(x-y\right)=12\end{matrix}\right.\Rightarrow\left[{}\begin{matrix}x-y=2\\x-y=-2\end{matrix}\right.\)

    \(\Rightarrow\left[{}\begin{matrix}\left\{{}\begin{matrix}x+y=6\\x-y=2\end{matrix}\right.\Rightarrow x=4;y=2}\\\left\{{}\begin{matrix}x+y=-6\\x-y=-2\end{matrix}\right.\Rightarrow x=-4;y=-2\end{matrix}\right.\)

    So xy = 8
