A square with which side will give the area model x^2+18x+81?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: x+9

The direct answer is A: the side is x+9. Compare the expression with (x+r)^2=x^2+2rx+r^2. The constant term is 81, so r^2=81 and the positive length is r=9. Check the middle term: 2·x·9=18x, exactly as required. Therefore x^2+18x+81=(x+9)^2, so a square with side x+9 produces the given area. Option B is wrong because (x+18)^2=x^2+36x+324, giving different middle and constant terms. Option C treats 81 as a side addition, but 81 is the square of the added part, not the part itself. Option D gives (x-9)^2=x^2-18x+81, whose middle term is negative. A useful method is to take the square root of the constant term and then verify the middle term. Memory cue: a positive middle term in a perfect square usually indicates the plus form, while a negative middle term indicates the minus form.
