A square model has total area 4x² + 12x + 9. What is the side of the whole square?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 2x + 3

Direct answer: Option A, 2x + 3, is correct. The area of a square is the square of its side. We look for a binomial whose square equals 4x² + 12x + 9. Since 4x² = (2x)² and 9 = 3², test (2x + 3)². Using (p + q)² = p² + 2pq + q², we get (2x + 3)² = (2x)² + 2(2x)(3) + 3² = 4x² + 12x + 9. Thus the whole square has side 2x + 3. Option B has square 16x² + 24x + 9, so its first term is wrong. Option C gives 4x² + 36x + 81, and option D gives 16x² + 72x + 81. A useful check is to compare both the first and last square terms before checking the middle term.
