If \(13^2\) is understood using the visual model of \((10+3)^2\), what is the \(2ab\) part?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 60

The direct answer is B: 60. Use the identity \((a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2\). Here the side 13 is split as \(10+3\), so \(a=10\) and \(b=3\). The middle part of the area model consists of two rectangles: one has area \(10\times3=30\), and the other has area \(3\times10=30\). Their combined area is \(2ab=2\times10\times3=60\). Option A is only the area of one rectangle, not both. Option B is correct. Option C does not follow from the identity and uses an incorrect product. Option D is \(10^2", the area of the large square portion, not the mixed part. As a check, \(13^2=100+60+9=169\). Memory cue: in a sum square, the middle term is twice the product of the two addends.
