In a square of side (y+5), the middle square is (y^2). Choose the identity using the two equal strips and corner.

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ((y+5)^2=y^2+10y+25)

The direct answer is A: (y+5)^2 = y^2 + 10y + 25. The area of a square is side multiplied by side, so the large square has area (y+5)(y+5). Split each side into lengths y and 5. The y by y central square has area y^2. There are two equal rectangles: each is y by 5, so each has area 5y and together they contribute 10y. The corner is a 5 by 5 square, whose area is 25. Adding all four regions gives y^2+5y+5y+25=y^2+10y+25. A therefore matches the complete area model. B counts only one strip and misses 5y. C puts the numbers in the wrong roles: 25 is not the coefficient of y and 10 is not the corner area. D has the correct middle term but incorrectly uses 5 instead of 25 for the corner. A useful memory cue is (u+v)^2=u^2+2uv+v^2: the two equal strips create 2uv, not just uv.
