Answer:


(2x+3)(2x+3)

Explanation:

The given expression is


4x^2+12x+9

Here, a=4, b=12, c=9.

Step 1: Multiply
a\cdot c=4\cdot 9=36

Step 2: Find the factors of ac that add to b.
6\cdot 6=36 and
6+6=12=b So, two factors of ac are 6 and 6.

Step 3:
4x^2+6x+6x+9

Step 4:
(4x^2+6x)+(6x+9)

Step 5:
2x(2x+3)+3(2x+3)

Step 6:
(2x+3)(2x+3)

Therefore, the required factor form is
(2x+3)(2x+3). It can also written as
(2x+3)^2.
