Which of the following trinomials can be factorised as the product of two identical binomial factors?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: \(9x^2+12xy+4y^2\)

The direct answer is A: \(9x^2+12xy+4y^2=(3x+2y)^2\). For two identical binomial factors, the expression must have the form \((U+V)^2=U^2+2UV+V^2\), or \((U-V)^2=U^2-2UV+V^2\). The first term gives \(U=3x\), and the last term gives \(V=2y\). Twice their product is \(2(3x)(2y)=12xy\), exactly the middle term in A. B has a negative last term, so it cannot be the square of these real binomial terms. C has a middle coefficient 6 instead of the required 12. D has final term \(2y^2\), not \((2y)^2=4y^2\). Thus only A passes both checks. Memory cue: square the first and last parts mentally, then calculate “twice the product” to test the middle term.
