Given:
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "\"7p%2B6q%29%5E2\"
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "To expand this recognize that when you square a quantity you multiply it by itself.
\n" ); document.write( "Therefore, multiply \"%287p%2B6q%29\" by itself. You can write this problem as:
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "\"%287p%2B6q%29%2A%287p%2B6q%29\"
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "To do this multiplication, you can first multiply the \"7p\" in the first set of parentheses
\n" ); document.write( "by each of the terms in the second set of parentheses. In other words, multiply:
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "\"7p%2A%287p+%2B+6q%29\" and you get \"49p%5E2+%2B+42pq\".
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Next multiply the \"6q\" in the first set of parentheses by each of the terms in the second
\n" ); document.write( "set of parentheses. In other words, this time multiply:
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "\"6q%2A%287p+%2B+6q%29\" and you get \"42pq+%2B+36q%5E2\"
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Finally, add the two products and simplify. Adding the two products:
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "\"49p%5E2+%2B+42pq+%2B+42pq+%2B+36q%5E2\"
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Notice that the two middle terms can be combined, and the resulting polynomial is:
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "\"49p%5E2+%2B+84pq+%2B36q%5E2\"
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "That's the answer to the problem. Hope this helps you to understand how to square a binomial
\n" ); document.write( "quantity.
