1Step 1

Given information:(a) (6x+7)2 (b) (3x-4)(3x+4)(c) (2x-5)(5x-2)(d) (6n-1)2


2Step 2

Conjugate Pair

conjugate pair is two binomials of the form

(a−b),(a+b).(a−b),(a+b).

The pair of binomials each have the same first term and the same last term, but one binomial is a sum and the other is a difference.

3Part (a) Step 1. Multiply the binomials

We are asked to square a binomial.it fits the binomial squares pattern.

(6x+7)2 Use the pattern 6x2+2.6x.7+(7)2 Simplify             6x2+84x+49


4Part(b) Step1. Multiply the binomials

(b)These are conjugates.They have the same first numbers and same last numbers,and one binomial is a sum and other is a difference.It fits the product of conjugate patterns.(3x-4)(3x+4)Use the Pattern  (3x)2-(4)2Simplify              3x2-16

5Part(c) Step1. Multiply the binomials

(c) (2x-5)(5x-2)This product does not fit the patterns, so we will use the FOIL.Use FOIL    10x2-4x-25x+10Simplify       10x2-29x+10

6Part(b) Step1. Multiply the binomials

(d)  (6n-1)2 Again,we will square a binomial so we use the binomial squares patternUse the pattern   (6n)2-2.6n.1+12Simplify               6n2-12n+1
