Answer

$4g^{2}-81h^{2}$

Work Step by Step

$(2g+9h)(2g-9h)$ ...identify which terms correspond to $a $ and $b $ in the rule for the product of a sum and difference ($(a+b)(a-b)=a^{2}-b^{2}$). $a=2g,\ b=9h$ ...substitute for $a $ and $b $ in the rule $(2g+9h)(2g-9h)=(2g)^{2}-(9h)^{2}$ ...simplify. =$4g^{2}-81h^{2}$
