Question

How do you simplify ${(x+4)}^2$?

Answer 1

Solve for the simplified form.

We have to simplify${(x+4)}^2$

We will simplify the given expression using the identity

${(a+b)}^2=a^2+b^2+2ab$

Here $a=x$ and $b=4$

$\Rightarrow {(x+4)}^2=x^2+16+8x$

Hence, the required answer is ${(x+4)}^2=x^2+16+8x$
