| ① | Multiply each term of $ \left( \color{blue}{9x-2}\right) $ by each term in $ \left( 9x-2\right) $. $$ \left( \color{blue}{9x-2}\right) \cdot \left( 9x-2\right) = 81x^2-18x-18x+4 $$ |
| ② | Combine like terms: $$ 81x^2 \color{blue}{-18x} \color{blue}{-18x} +4 = 81x^2 \color{blue}{-36x} +4 $$ |
