Answer: Option c) and d) are correct.

Explanation: Since, we know that the area of a square, A= s^2, where,  s is the side of a square, and it always be a positive number and makes a perfect square.

In option (a),  x^2-9 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, x^2+10x+25=0\Rightarrow (x+5)^2 and this gives a perfect square for every value of x. So, it can be the area of a square.

Similarly, x^2-4x+4=0\Rightarrow (x-2)^2 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.
