If you cut off the end of that rectangle, you make it smaller, 2 * 3 and a separate nub of size 1 * 2

(n - 1)(n + 1)

Has anyone ever had sex with their cousin? How did it start, and would you do it again?
Move the nub up to the top:
So, that’s a rectangle with sides 2 and 4.
And you are left with almost a square. One less than the square of side n.

The more direct answer is to look at a rectangle with sides of n + 1 and n - 1, let’s go with n = 2

The basic answer is that you cross-multiply the values in each factor:
n^2 - 1
n^2 - n + n - 1
