What area remains when a square of side x is removed from a square of side x + 6?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 12x + 36

The correct answer is 12x + 36. The area of a square is the square of its side. Thus, the larger square has area (x + 6)², while the removed square has area x². The remaining area is (x + 6)² − x². Expanding the first square gives x² + 12x + 36. Subtracting x² leaves x² + 12x + 36 − x² = 12x + 36. Option A is therefore correct. Option B uses 6x instead of the required middle term 2 × x × 6 = 12x. Option C fails to subtract the x² area of the smaller square. Option D has the correct 12x part but an incorrect constant term; the square of 6 is 36, not 6. The difference-of-squares identity gives a quicker check: (x + 6)² − x² = 6(2x + 6) = 12x + 36.
