a) \(\left(3x+1\right)^2-2\left(3x+1\right)\left(3x+5\right)+\left(3x+5\right)^2\)
\(=\left[\left(3x+1\right)-\left(3x+5\right)\right]^2\)
\(=\left(3x+1-3x-5\right)^2\)
\(=\left(-4\right)^2\)
\(=16\)
b) \(\left(3+1\right)\left(3^2+1\right)\left(3^4+1\right)\left(3^8+1\right)\left(3^{16}+1\right)\left(3^{32}+1\right)\)
\(=\dfrac{1}{2}\left(3-1\right)\left(3+1\right)\left(3^2+1\right)\left(3^4+1\right)\left(3^8+1\right)\left(3^{16}+1\right)\left(3^{32}+1\right)\)
\(=\dfrac{1}{2}\left(3^2-1\right)\left(3^2+1\right)\left(3^4+1\right)\left(3^8+1\right)\left(3^{16}+1\right)\left(3^{32}+1\right)\)
\(=\dfrac{1}{2}\left(3^4-1\right)\left(3^4+1\right)\left(3^8+1\right)\left(3^{16}+1\right)\left(3^{32}+1\right)\)
\(=\dfrac{1}{2}\left(3^8-1\right)\left(3^8+1\right)\left(3^{16}+1\right)\left(3^{32}+1\right)\)
\(=\dfrac{1}{2}\left(3^{16}-1\right)\left(3^{16}+1\right)\left(3^{32}+1\right)\)
\(=\dfrac{1}{2}\left(3^{32}-1\right)\left(3^{32}+1\right)\)
\(=\dfrac{1}{2}\left(3^{64}-1\right)\)
