Which expression is a perfect-square trinomial and can therefore be written as the product of two identical binomial factors?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: \(x^2+10x+25\)

Direct answer: A, x²+10x+25. Compare it with the identity (u+v)²=u²+2uv+v². Here u=x and v=5: u²=x², 2uv=2×x×5=10x, and v²=25. Therefore x²+10x+25=(x+5)²=(x+5)(x+5), so the two binomial factors are identical. Option B has 20 instead of the required 25, so it is not a perfect square. Option C is a difference of squares, x²−25=(x−5)(x+5), but its factors are not identical and it is not a trinomial. Option D has the correct first and last square terms, but its middle term would need to be 10x, not 5x. Expanding A confirms the result. Memory cue: for x²+bx+c to be (x+k)², c must be k² and b must be 2k.
