An area model shows 16a²+40ab+25b². It is the area of a square with which side?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 4a+5b

Direct answer: Option A, 4a+5b, is correct. Recognise the expression as a perfect square. The first term is 16a²=(4a)², and the last term is 25b²=(5b)². For a square of side 4a+5b, the middle term must be 2×4a×5b=40ab, which is exactly the given middle term. Therefore 16a²+40ab+25b²=(4a+5b)², so the side of the modelled square is 4a+5b. Option B would produce a negative middle term, −40ab. Option C is not formed by taking the square roots of the first and last terms and would produce different powers and coefficients. Option D is twice the correct side, so its square would be four times the given area. A useful method is to take square roots of the two square terms and verify the middle term.
