Answer (2)

x โ‹„ y = ( x + y ) 2 โˆ’ ( x โˆ’ y ) 2 = x 2 + 2 x y + y 2 โˆ’ ( x 2 โˆ’ 2 x y + y 2 ) = x 2 + 2 x y + y 2 โˆ’ x 2 + 2 x y โˆ’ y 2 = 4 x y 5 โ€‹ โ‹„ 5 โ€‹ = 4 โ‹… 5 โ€‹ โ‹… 5 โ€‹ = 4 โ‹… 5 = 20

The calculation of 5 โ€‹ ยค 5 โ€‹ using the defined operation results in 20. By applying the operation step-by-step, we found that ( 5 โ€‹ + 5 โ€‹ ) 2 equals 20 and ( 5 โ€‹ โˆ’ 5 โ€‹ ) 2 equals 0. Therefore, the final answer is 20.
