Why is (n-1)(n+1)=n^2-1?

Move the nub up to the top:

(n - 1)(n + 1)

The basic answer is that you cross-multiply the values in each factor:

And you are left with almost a square. One less than the square of side n.

If you cut off the end of that rectangle, you make it smaller, 2 * 3 and a separate nub of size 1 * 2
