Full solution

Q. Factor.\newline25d2+40d+1625d^2 + 40d + 16
  1. Identify Perfect Square Trinomial: Identify if the quadratic is a perfect square trinomial. \newline25d2=(5d)225d^2 = (5d)^2, 16=4216 = 4^2, and 40d=2×(5d)×440d = 2 \times (5d) \times 4.\newlineCheck if it fits the form (a+b)2=a2+2ab+b2(a + b)^2 = a^2 + 2ab + b^2.
  2. Write Expression in Form: Write down the expression in the form of a perfect square trinomial. 25d2+40d+16=(5d)2+2×(5d)×4+4225d^2 + 40d + 16 = (5d)^2 + 2 \times (5d) \times 4 + 4^2.
  3. Factor as Square of Binomial: Factor the expression as a square of a binomial.\newline(5d+4)2=(5d+4)(5d+4)(5d + 4)^2 = (5d + 4)(5d + 4).
