Question

A square has side length represented by X +4 inches write an expression to represent the area. Express your answer as a trinomial.

Answer 1

Answer:

$A=(x^2+16+8x)\ \text{inches}^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The side length of a square, l = (x+4) inches

We need to find an expression to represent the area of the square.

The area of a square is given by :

$A=\text{side}^2$

So,

$A=(x+4)^2\\\\A=(x^2+16+8x)\ \text{inches}^2$

So, the area of the square is $(x^2+16+8x)\ \text{inches}^2$.
