In a square with side \((2a+3)\), what will be the area of the large square part?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: \(4a^2\)

The correct answer is B: \(4a^2\). In the visual area model, the side \(2a+3\) is divided into two parts, \(2a\) and \(3\). The large square is formed by using the \(2a\) part along both its length and breadth. Therefore, its side is \(2a\), so its area is \((2a)(2a)=(2a)^2=4a^2\). Notice that both the numerical coefficient and the variable are squared: \(2^2\times a^2=4a^2\). Option A, \(2a^2\), forgets to square the coefficient 2. Option C, \(6a\), is obtained from \((2a)(3)\), so it represents one rectangular cross-part, not the large square. Option D, \(9\), is the area of the small square with side 3. A useful memory cue is: for any square region, multiply its side by itself; never square only the letter and leave the coefficient unchanged.
