Math Problem Statement

Factorize the given algebraic expressions, including examples like x^2 + 2x + 1, y^2 + 6y + 9, and others.

Solution

The question requires factorizing the given expressions. I will solve the ones listed:

  1. x2+2x+1x^2 + 2x + 1: This is a perfect square trinomial. x2+2x+1=(x+1)2x^2 + 2x + 1 = (x + 1)^2

  2. y2+6y+9y^2 + 6y + 9: Another perfect square trinomial. y2+6y+9=(y+3)2y^2 + 6y + 9 = (y + 3)^2

  3. ω210ω+25\omega^2 - 10\omega + 25: Another perfect square trinomial. ω210ω+25=(ω5)2\omega^2 - 10\omega + 25 = (\omega - 5)^2

  4. 16x256xy+49y216x^2 - 56xy + 49y^2: This is also a perfect square trinomial. 16x256xy+49y2=(4x7y)216x^2 - 56xy + 49y^2 = (4x - 7y)^2

  5. 25x2+40xy+16y225x^2 + 40xy + 16y^2: Another perfect square trinomial. 25x2+40xy+16y2=(5x+4y)225x^2 + 40xy + 16y^2 = (5x + 4y)^2

  6. x210xy+25x^2 - 10xy + 25: Another perfect square trinomial. x210xy+25=(x5y)2x^2 - 10xy + 25 = (x - 5y)^2
