here's the tricky one:

-Paano nangyari to?

let a = b

(multiply both sides of the equation with a)

ab = a^2

(subtract both sides of the equation with b squared)

ab - b^2 = a^2 - b^2

the factors of the equation are

b(a-b) = (a+b)(a-b)

divide both sides of the equation with (a-b)

b = a + b

let a = 1

since a = b therefore

1 = 1+1 or 1 = 2

uhm.... since a=b, you can't divide both sides of the equation (b[a-b]=[a+b][a-b]) by (a-b) because a-b=0 (transpose b to the left side of a=b). If you do so, both sides of the equation will be undefined. Therefore, from this point on, the proof is invalid...la lang..
