IT has an "x^2" so in both parenthesis it'll have: (x )(x )

Now find 2 numbers that when multiplied gives you 25 but when added gives you 10, 5 and 5, 5*5 = 25, 5 + 5 = 10

(x + 5)(x + 5)

The other one is, it's a perfect square trinomial. You could simplify it down to (x + 5)

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