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

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

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

Why does Christianity push reconciliation after a partner cheats? Mine had a 7-year affair with someone half my age. He cheated and lied. He is not the same to me.

The more direct answer is to look at a rectangle with sides of n + 1 and n - 1, let’s go with n = 2

So, that’s a rectangle with sides 2 and 4.

Move the nub up to the top:

My grandmother deeded me her house before she passed last year. Her son still lives there refusing to move. What steps should I take to have him removed?

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