Question

How do you write perfect square trinomials?
I seem kind of incapable of understanding this concept, so could anyone explain it maybe in very simple terms, preferably with examples? Thanks.

Answer 1

ax^2+bx+C this is a perfect square trinomial bjt it can be written as for example
(x+1)=x^2+2x+1

Answer 2

(x+1)^2=x^2+2x+1

Answer 3

yes

Answer 4

@isaidavila Thanks for your time -- I think that helped to clarify the concept for me.

Answer 5

No problem @ireallydontlikemath

Answer 6

x^2 - 8x + 16 is another
this factors to (x - 4)^2
