Answer:
-(1 - 2a)^2
Step-by-step explanation:
-1 + 4a - 4a^2
= -[1^2 - 2*1*(2a) + (2a)^2]
= -(1 - 2a)^2
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Begin by taking out the minus
-(4a^2 - 4a + 1) The answer is the square root of the 1st and 3rd terms.
√4a^2 = 2a
√1 = 1 Since middle term is minus, one of 2a or 1 must also be minus
Usually the one is made minus.
That leaves you with a perfect square
- (2a - 1)^2 There are more ways than 1 to write this, but I think this is the clearest answer
