Question

Which of the binomials below is a factor of this trinomial x^2+4x+4

Answer 1

The factor is (x+2).

Explanation:

`x^(2) +4x+4`

Lets assume this to be zero.

`x^(2) +4x+4=0`

factoring it we get

`x^(2) +2x+2x+4=0`

`x(x+2)+2(x+2)=0`

This gives
`(x+2)(x+2)` as factors.

Therefore, the factor is (x+2)

We can also check this as :

`(x+2)^(2) =x^(2) +4x+4`

Answer 2

x² + 4x + 4
x 2
x 2

(x + 2) (x + 2)


x + 2 should be your answer
