Using the visual identity, what is the area of a square with side (10+2)?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 144

The direct answer is B: 144. First find the side: 10+2=12. The area of a square is side², so the area is 12²=144. Using the visual identity gives the same result: (10+2)²=10²+2(10)(2)+2²=100+40+4=144. The 100 comes from the 10 by 10 square, the 40 comes from two 10 by 2 rectangles, and the 4 comes from the 2 by 2 square. Option A, 120, omits or mishandles part of the area. Option B includes all three regions correctly. Option C, 104, adds only the two square regions and leaves out the middle rectangles. Option D, 124, does not correctly calculate the cross-term 40. Memory cue: in (a+b)², always include the middle term 2ab; adding only a² and b² is not enough.
