Expand the following, using suitable identities:
1)(−2x+3y+2z)2
2)(−2x+5y−3z)2. [4 MARKS]
Formula: 1 Mark
Application: 1 Mark each
Answer: 0.5 Mark each
(a+b+c)2=a2+b2+c2+2ab+2bc+2ca ...identity(i)
1)(−2x+3y+2z)2
a=−2x,b=3y,c=2z [comparing with identity(i)]
=(−2x)2+(3y)2+(2z)2+2(−2x)(3y)+2(3y)(2z)+2(2z)(−2x)
=4x2+9y2+4z2−12xy+12yz−8zx
2)(−2x+5y−3z)2
a=−2x,b=5y,c=−3z [comparing with identity(i)]
=(−2x)2+(5y)2+(−3z)2+2(−2x)(5y)+2(5y)(−3z)+2(−3z)(−2x)
