Using a visual model, what is the area of a square with side \(10+2\)?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 144

The direct answer is C: 144. First find the side: \(10+2=12\). The area of a square is side squared, so the area is \(12^2=144\). The visual model explains the same result by splitting the square into four parts: a \(10 imes10\) square with area 100, two \(10 imes2\) rectangles with areas 20 and 20, and a \(2 imes2\) square with area 4. Their total is \(100+20+20+4=144\). A is missing too much area and does not equal the expansion. B omits the small \(2 imes2\) square because it is only 100+20. D includes 100+20+4 but forgets the second middle rectangle. C includes all four regions and agrees with \((10+2)^2=10^2+2(10)(2)+2^2\). Memory cue: when squaring a sum, count both equal middle rectangles; that is the \(2ab\) term.
