A square model has area \(16p^2-40pq+25q^2\). It represents a square with which side?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: \((4p-5q)\)

The correct answer is C: the side is \(4p-5q\). Use the identity \((u-v)^2=u^2-2uv+v^2\). Here \(16p^2=(4p)^2\) and \(25q^2=(5q)^2\). The middle term expected from \((4p-5q)^2\) is \(-2(4p)(5q)=-40pq\), exactly as given. Therefore \((4p-5q)^2=16p^2-40pq+25q^2\). A has a plus sign and would produce a positive middle term \(+40pq\), so it is not correct. B does not use the required square roots and its expansion is different. D is twice the correct side, so its square would be four times the given area. The negative middle term is the decisive clue: it means the two component lengths are subtracted in the side. Memory cue: square-root the first and last terms, then check the middle term and its sign.
