Two Perfect Squares

Definition:

In mathematics, a square number, sometimes also called a perfect square, is an integer that is the square of an integer; in other words, it is the product of some integer with itself. So, for example, 9 is a square number, since it can be written as 3 × 3. Square numbers are non-negative. Another way of saying that a (non-negative) number is a square number is that its square root is again an integer. Having problem with Solid Geometry keep reading my upcoming posts, i will try to help you.


Examples


For example 1,

(x + 2)(x + 2)

You get:

x^2 + 4x + 4

Please express your views of this topic hard 7th grade math problems by commenting on blog.

Therefore, the quadratic expression x^2 + 4x + 4 is a perfect square since it factors into two identical binomials which are (x + 2) and (x + 2).

Notice that (x + 2) (x + 2) can be written (x + 2)2. So:

x^2 + 4x + 4 = (x + 2)2

For example 2,

(x + 3)(x + 3)

You get:

x^2 + 6x + 9

Therefore, the quadratic expression x^2 + 6x + 9 is a perfect square since it factors into two identical binomials which are (x + 3) and (x + 3).

Notice that (x + 3) (x + 3) can be written (x + 3)2. So:

x^2 + 6x + 9 = (x + 3)2

For example 3,

(x + 4)(x + 4)

You get:

x^2 + 8x + 16

Therefore, the quadratic expression x^2 + 8x + 16 is a perfect square since it factors into two identical binomials which are (x + 4) and (x + 4).

Notice that (x + 4) (x + 4) can be written (x + 4)2. So:

x^2 + 8x + 16 = (x + 4)2

For example 4,

(x + 5)(x + 5)

You get:

x^2 + 10x + 25

Therefore, the quadratic expression x^2 + 10x + 25 is a perfect square since it factors into two identical binomials which are (x + 5) and (x + 5).

Notice that (x + 5) (x + 5) can be written (x + 5)2. So:

x^2 + 10x + 25 = (x + 5)2

For example 5,

(x + 6)(x + 6)

You get:

x^2 + 12x + 30

Therefore, the quadratic expression x^2 + 12x + 30 is a perfect square since it factors into two identical binomials which are (x +6) and (x + 6).

Notice that (x + 6) (x + 6) can be written (x + 6)2. So:

x^2 + 12x + 30 = (x + 6)2

For example 6,

(x -5)(x -5)

You get:

x^2 - 10x + 25

Therefore, the quadratic expression x^2 - 10x + 25 is a perfect square since it factors into two identical binomials which are (x - 5) and (x - 5).

Notice that (x - 5) (x - 5) can be written (x - 5)2. So:

x^2 - 10x + 25 = (x - 5)2
