Which of the following expressions is a perfect-square trinomial that can be factorised as the square of a binomial?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: x² + 10x + 25

Answer: A, x² + 10x + 25 = (x + 5)². The basic identity is a² + 2ab + b² = (a + b)². Here the first term x² is the square of x, the last term 25 is the square of 5, and the middle term must be 2 × x × 5 = 10x. Therefore the expression has exactly the required pattern and is a perfect-square trinomial. A is correct because it becomes (x + 5)². B is wrong because x² + 10x + 20 has 20 instead of the required 25. C is wrong because the middle term should be 10x, not 5x. D is wrong because although its middle term is −10x, the constant term would need to be 25 for (x − 5)²; with 20 it is not a square. Memory cue: square the end terms and check whether the middle term is twice their square roots multiplied together.
