- A48
- B25
- C550
- D625
Solution & Step-by-step Explanation
Let's look at the structure of the given expression:
E=22.2×22.2+124.32+2.8×2.8
This can be written in the form of a
2
+2ab+b
2
where:
a=22.2
b=2.8
Let's check the middle term 2ab:
2ab=2×22.2×2.8=44.4×2.8=124.32
Since the middle term matches perfectly, the expression simplifies to (a+b)
2
:
E=(22.2+2.8)
2
E=(25)

=625
E=22.2×22.2+124.32+2.8×2.8
This can be written in the form of a
2
+2ab+b
2
where:
a=22.2
b=2.8
Let's check the middle term 2ab:
2ab=2×22.2×2.8=44.4×2.8=124.32
Since the middle term matches perfectly, the expression simplifies to (a+b)
