Hi,

(a+b)² = a²+2ab+b²

For a = 2 and b = 5

(2+5)² = 2²+2(2)(5)+5²
(2+5)² = 4+20+25
(2+5)² = 49

Answer:

D. Square of a Binomial

Answer:

Option D is correct.

Square of binomials.

Step-by-step explanation:

Prove that: [tex]49 = (2+5)^2[/tex]

Square of binomials states that the square of a binomial is always a trinomial.  

Also, it will be helpful to memorize these patterns for writing squares of binomials as trinomials.

[tex](a+b)^2 = a^2+2ab+b^2[/tex]

Take RHS

[tex](2+5)^2[/tex]

Apply the square of binomial, we have;

[tex](2+5)^2 = 2^2+2 \cdot 2 \cdot 5 +5^2[/tex]

                   = 4 + 20 + 25 = 24 + 25 = 49 = LHS           proved.

Therefore, Square of binomials identity will prove that  [tex]49 = (2+5)^2[/tex]
