Which identity is represented by an area model in which a square of side a+b is divided into strips of lengths a and b?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: (a+b)²=a²+2ab+b²

The correct answer is A: (a+b)²=a²+2ab+b². The whole figure is a square whose side is a+b, so its area is (a+b)². Dividing both directions into lengths a and b creates one a² square, one b² square, and two rectangles of area ab. Adding the four parts gives a²+ab+ab+b²=a²+2ab+b². Option B describes the square of a difference and would require negative or subtractive cross-regions. Option C is the difference-of-squares identity, involving two different squares rather than this single divided square. Option D counts only one ab rectangle and is incomplete. Memory cue: a plus sign in both side lengths produces two positive cross-terms.
