If a three-part square has square parts a^2, b^2, c^2 and paired rectangles, what is the total contribution of ab in (a+b+c)^2?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 2ab

The correct answer is C. In the visual square for (a+b+c)^2, the a and b strips meet in two separate rectangular regions. One has area a times b=ab, and the other has area b times a=ab. Adding them gives ab+ab=2ab. The c-related rectangles contribute 2ac and 2bc, but they do not change the ab contribution. Option A counts only one of the two rectangles. Option B squares both variables and therefore has the wrong type and degree; the region has side lengths a and b, not a^2 and b^2. Option D counts three rectangles even though only two orientations involve a and b. Memory cue: in a square of three summed parts, every distinct pair appears twice, producing 2ab, 2ac, or 2bc.
