Answer

Using the formula,

[∵(x + y) = x2 + y2 + 2xy]

And,

[∵(x - y) = x2 + y2 - 2xy]

(x + 3) (x + 3) - (x - 2) (x - 2)

⇒ [(x + 3)2] - [(x - 2)2]

⇒ [x2 + 32 + 2 ×\times x ×\times 3] - [x2 + 22 - 2 ×\times x ×\times 2]

⇒ [x2 + 9 + 6x] - [x2 + 4 - 4x]

⇒ x2 + 9 + 6x - x2 - 4 + 4x

⇒ (x2 - x2) + (9 - 4) + (6x + 4x)

⇒ 5 + 10x

⇒ 10x + 5

Hence, option 1 is the correct option.
