Which of the following is a perfect square trinomial?

shutvik [7]2 years ago

Answer:

A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Take a look at what happens when squaring either of these...

(ax-by)^2=(ax-by)(ax-by)=a^2x^2-2abxy+b^2y^2\\\\(ax+by)^2=(ax+by)(ax+by)=a^2x^2+2abxy+b^2y^2\\

Notice a couple of patterns.

1.  The last term has a positive coefficient.  That rules out answer choices C and D.

2.  The coefficient of the middle term is either +2ab \text{ or } -2ab .  So what are <em>a</em>  and <em>b</em>?  <em>a</em> is the square root of the x^2 term and <em>b</em> is the square root of the y^2 term.

25x^2 \Rightarrow a=5\\\\9y^2 \Rightarrow b=3\\\\ab=15\\\\2ab=30

The middle coefficient needs to be either +30 or -30.  The answer is choice A.

For the original cone:
V = pi*h*r^2 = x
The upper half of the cone has half the height and half the radius of the original cone of volume x, so its volume is calculated as:
V = pi*(h/2)*(r/2)^2 = (1/8)*pi*h*r^2 = x/8

Therefore the volume of the other piece (the frustum) is x - (x/8) = 7x/8 cubic centimeters.
