Which of the following expressions is a perfect-square trinomial and can be factorised as the product of two identical binomials?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: x² + 10x + 25

Answer: A, because x² + 10x + 25 = (x+5)(x+5) = (x+5)². When two identical binomials are multiplied, (u+v)² gives u²+2uv+v². Taking u=x and v=5 produces x²+10x+25. B is not correct: changing 25 to 20 destroys the square pattern. C is not correct because the cross-term should be 10x, not 5x. D is not correct for this question because it has only two terms and lacks the cross-term; x²+25 is not generally equal to (x+5)². Notice that identical binomials may have either a plus or minus sign, but the corresponding middle term and constant must agree. A quick check is to take the square roots of the first and last terms and then calculate twice their product. This prevents confusing a sum of squares with a square of a sum.
