Answer: Option c) and d) are correct.
Explanation: Since, we know that the area of a square, , where, s is the side of a square, and it always be a positive number and makes a perfect square.
In option (a), does not gives a perfect square for all the values of x>2, where x is a whole number. So, it can not be the area of a square.
Similarly, option (b) and (e) can not give the perfect square for all the values of x greater than 2.
But, In option (c) and (d) equations make the perfect square.
Because, and this gives a perfect square for every value of x. So, it can be the area of a square.
Similarly, which also gives a perfect square for every value of x. So, it also can be the area of a square.
Thus, option (c) and (d) are the correct options.
