Which trinomial is a perfect-square trinomial that can be written as the product of two identical binomials?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: x² + 6x + 9

The correct answer is A: x² + 6x + 9. A perfect-square trinomial has the form a² + 2ab + b² = (a + b)², or a² − 2ab + b² = (a − b)². Here x² is the square of x and 9 is the square of 3. The middle term must be twice their product: 2 × x × 3 = 6x. Thus x² + 6x + 9 = (x + 3)² = (x + 3)(x + 3). Option B fails because 8 is not 3², and its middle term does not match a square using the constant 8. Option C has the correct first and last square terms, but the middle term should be 6x, not 5x. Option D has a negative middle term, but its constant 8 still prevents it from being a square trinomial. Memory cue: square the first and last roots, then check whether the middle term is twice their product.
