Question

Use the perfect square trinomial identity to write this expression in factored form:
x2 + 10x + 25

Answer 1

Answer:

(x + 5)²

Step-by-step explanation:

To get this we must find a binomial that multiplies by itself to get x² + 10x + 25.

(x + 5)(x + 5)

= x² + 5x + 5x + 25

= x² + 10x + 25
