Question 2 • FL-1200700-Mathematics for College Algebra MIS
A perfect square trinomial has the form (x ± a)² = x² ± 2ax + a². Here, x² − 4x + 4 = (x − 2)² and x² + 10x + 25 = (x + 5)², so the correct choices are C, x² − 4x + 4, and D, x² + 10x + 25. The other expressions do not have both the matching middle term and constant required for a perfect square.
