Question

Which of the following is the square of a binomial?
A. 4m^2 - 6mn + 9n^2, B. 16x^2 + 24xy + 9y^2, C. c^2 - 2cd - d^2, D. a^2 + b^2.

Answer 1

All options except Option D , a² + b²  , is the square of the binomial.

What is a Binomial ?

A polynomial that contains only two term is called a Binomial.

The sum of square of a binomial is the sum of square of the first term , square of second term and twice of the product of the first and second term.

(a+b)² = a² +b² +2ab

(a-b)² =  a² +b²-2ab

The options have to be broken down into this form to check whether they are square of a binomial

Option A : 4m² - 6mn + 9n² = (2m -3n)²

Option B:  16x² + 24xy + 9y²=(4x+3y)²

Option C : c²- 2cd - d²=(c-d)²

Option D : a² + b² cannot be written as the square of binomial.

All options except Option D is the square of the binomial.
