Question

I do not understand this problem

Answer 1

16c² + 32cd + 16d²

Explanation:

A polynomial is an expression consisting of variables and coefficients. For example,
`4x^3+3x^2+6x-4` is an example of a cubic polynomial.

Area of a square = side length x side length

Therefore, given the side length of this square is 4c + 4d, then the area can be expressed as:

area = (4c + 4d) x (4c x 4d) = (4c + 4d)²

If we expand the brackets we get:

area = 16c² + 32cd + 16d²
