Using the identity, what is the area of a square with side 7+3?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 100

The direct answer is A, 100. The area of a square is side multiplied by itself, so the required area is (7+3)^2. Use the identity (a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2 with a=7 and b=3. Then (7+3)^2=7^2+2(7)(3)+3^2=49+42+9=100. A is correct. B, 49, is only 7^2 and leaves out the contribution of 3 and the two cross-products. C, 79, does not result from the identity and is numerically incorrect. D, 91, also omits or miscalculates part of the middle and final terms. A quick check is possible without the identity: 7+3=10, and 10^2=100. The visual meaning is that the large square contains one 7-by-7 square, two 7-by-3 rectangles, and one 3-by-3 square. Memory cue: for a squared sum, never forget the middle term 2ab; all three pieces a^2, 2ab, and b^2 are needed.
