When you square a binomial, you are multiplying the binomial by itself, which requires using the distributive property. This means each term in the first binomial multiplies each term in the second binomial.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For ((x + 9)(x + 9)), we perform the following calculations:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Multiply (x) by (x) to get (x^2).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Multiply (x) by (9) to get (9x).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Multiply (9) by (x) to get another (9x).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Multiply (9) by (9) to get (81).<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Next, we combine the like terms (9x) and (9x) to get (18x). The final expression, (x^2 + 18x + 81), is in standard form, which is characterized by the order of terms from highest degree to lowest degree (in this case, (x^2), (x), and the constant).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This method of expansion is not only fundamental for algebra but also helps in various applications, such as solving quadratic equations or graphing parabolas.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Express (x + 9)2 as a trinomial in standard form.
