Brahmagupta - Fibonacci Identity


                                                      Brahmagupta - Fibonacci Identity 


There is a very famous identity used in algebra known as – Brahmagupta – Fibonacci identity that expresses the product of two sums of two squares as a sum of two squares in two different ways.
                        (a2 + b2) (c2 + d2) = (ac – bd)2 + (ad + bc)2      
                                                  = ( ac + bd)2 + (ad – bc)2
For example:-
(12 + 42) (22 + 72) = (2 – 28)2 + (7 + 8)2
                            = 262 + 152
And
(12 + 42) (22 + 72) = (2 + 28)2 + (7 – 8)2
                            = 302 + 12
