In a visual proof, a square of side a+b+c is divided into nine parts. Three square parts have areas a², b², and c². What is the total area of the rectangular parts?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 2ab+2bc+2ca — 2ab+2bc+2ca

The direct answer is B: 2ab+2bc+2ca. The full square has side a+b+c, so its area is (a+b+c)². The three diagonal square regions contribute a², b², and c². For each pair of different lengths, there are two equal rectangles: two a by b rectangles contribute 2ab, two b by c rectangles contribute 2bc, and two c by a rectangles contribute 2ca. Therefore the total rectangular area is 2ab+2bc+2ca. A counts only one rectangle for each pair and misses the matching partner. C is a length, not the total area. D counts only the three square regions and leaves out every rectangle. Memory cue: expanding a trinomial square creates each pairwise product twice.
