The sum of two terms multiplied by their difference is equal to the square of the first term minus the square of the second term. In other words: $(a+b)(a-b)=a^2-b^2$.
Evaluate the limit $\lim_{x\to1}\left(x^2-1\right)$ by replacing all occurrences of $x$ by $1$
Calculate the power $1^2$
Subtract the values $1$ and $-1$
