Multiply (x+2)^2

Problem

(x+2)2

Solution

1. Identify the expression as a binomial squared, which follows the pattern (a+b)2=a2+2*a*b+b2

2. Assign the values a=x and b=2 to the terms in the pattern.

3. Expand the expression by squaring the first term, adding twice the product of the two terms, and squaring the last term.

x2+2*(x)*(2)+2

4. Simplify the terms by performing the multiplication and squaring the constant.

x2+4*x+4

Final Answer

(x+2)2=x2+4*x+4
