# Worksheet on Square of the Sum of Two Binomials

Practice the questions given in the worksheet on square of the sum of two binomials. We know, square of a binomial means multiplying a binomial with itself.

See the formulas to expand the square of the sum of two binomials.

1. Expand the following:

(i) (x + 5)2

(ii) (3p + 4)2

(iii) (√5x + 1)2

(iv) (5x + 7y)2

(v) (x/3 + y/5)2

2. Find the square of the following:

(i) (t/9 + 4/t)

(ii) 0.3 x + 0.4 y

(iii) c + 6

3. Use the formula for squaring the binomials and evaluate

(i) (103)2

(ii) (10.8)2

(iii) (9.2)2

4. (i) If x + y = 10 and xy = 15, find the value of x2 + y2

(ii) If x2 + y2 = 29 and xy = 10, find the value of x + y

5. If x + 1/x = 5, find x2 + 1/x2

6. If x2 + 1/x2 = 14, find x + 1/x

7. If x + 1/x = 3, find the value of x4 + 1/x4

8. What must be added to 49y2 + 70xy to make it a perfect square?

9. What must be subtracted to 4x2 + 9y2 to make it a perfect square?

10. (i) (2x + 5y)2

(ii) (x + 1/3)2
