In the visual model of (2a-b)^2, which part is finally added as positive?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: b^2

The correct answer is C. Apply the identity (p-q)^2=p^2-2pq+q^2 with p=2a and q=b. The first square is (2a)^2=4a^2, the two cross-rectangles together contribute -2(2a)(b)=-4ab, and the small square from the b side has area (-b)^2=b^2. A square area is positive because multiplying a quantity by itself removes its sign. Option A is also positive, but it is the first large square, not the final b-part being asked about. Option B is the negative middle contribution. Option D incorrectly keeps a negative sign on b^2. Common confusion: the minus sign affects the cross term, but the square of the subtracted term is positive.
