If $X$ and $Y$ are independent random variables with equal variances, find $\operatorname{Cov}(X+Y, X-Y)$
If X and Y are independent random variables, then their covariance is 0. If X and Y are random variables such that Cov(X, Y) = 0, then X and Y are independent.

Show that if $X$ and $Y$ are independent random variables, then $V(X Y)=E(X)^{2} V(Y)+E(Y)^{2} V(X)+V(X) V(Y)$.
