    Simplify (5x − 2y)² + (2x + 5y)² + (5x + 2y)(5x − 2y).
    Question

    Simplify (5x − 2y)² + (2x + 5y)² + (5x + 2y)(5x − 2y).

    A.

    −55x² + 25y²

    B.

    −54x² − 25y²

    C.

    54x² + 25y²

    D.

    55x² − 25y²

    Correct option is C

    Given:
    (5x − 2y)² + (2x + 5y)² + (5x + 2y)(5x − 2y).
    Formula Used:
    (a − b)² = a² − 2ab + b²
    (a + b)² = a² + 2ab + b²
    (a + b)(a − b) = a² − b²
    Solution:
    (5x − 2y)² = (5x)² − 2 × (5x) × (2y) + (2y)² = 25x² − 20xy + 4y²
    (2x + 5y)² = (2x)² + 2 × (2x) × (5y) + (5y)² = 4x² + 20xy + 25y²
    (5x + 2y)(5x − 2y) = (5x)² − (2y)² = 25x² − 4y²
    Find:
    (5x − 2y)² + (2x + 5y)² + (5x + 2y)(5x − 2y)
    = (25x² − 20xy + 4y²) + (4x² + 20xy + 25y²) + (25x² − 4y²)
    = (25x² + 4x² + 25x²) + (−20xy + 20xy) + (4y² + 25y² − 4y²)
    = 54x² + 25y²
