**Fill in the blank.**

\[ P^2 - Q^2 = \_\_\_\_\_ \]

The expression \( P^2 - Q^2 \) is presented with a dropdown menu for selecting the correct factored form. Students are asked to determine which option correctly completes the equation.

**Options:**

1. \( (P - Q)(P - Q) \)
2. \( (P + Q)(P + Q) \)
3. \( (P - Q)(P + Q) \)

This exercise focuses on recognizing the difference of squares, a fundamental algebraic identity. The correct answer is:

\[ P^2 - Q^2 = (P - Q)(P + Q) \]
