Determine which polynomial is a perfect square trinomial. 4x2 − 12x 9 16x2 24x − 9 4a2 − 10a 25 36b2 − 24b − 16.

Sagot :

This [tex]4x^2 - 12x + 9[/tex] factors into [tex](2x - 3)^2[/tex], and is thus a perfect square trinomial.

What is a perfect square?

A perfect square is a number system that can be expressed as the

square of a given number from the same system.

Trinomial [tex]Ax^2 + Bx + C[/tex] is a perfect square if

A > 0

C > 0

B = ±2√A√C

1. [tex]36b^2 - 24b - 16[/tex]

C < 0

2. [tex]4a^2 - 10a + 25[/tex]

2√A√C = 2×2×5

              = 20,

B = −10

3. [tex]16x^2 + 24x - 9[/tex]

not a perfect square,

C < 0

4. [tex]4x^2- 12x + 9[/tex]

perfect square

A>0,

C>0,

2√A√C = 2×2×3

-B = 12

= [tex](2x - 3)^2[/tex]

Thus,  [tex]4x^2- 12x + 9[/tex] the polynomial is a perfect square trinomial.
