To make the polynomial ( x^2 - 28x + ? ) a perfect square trinomial, we need to find the value that completes the square. The formula for a perfect square trinomial is ( (x - a)^2 = x^2 - 2ax + a^2 ). Here, ( a ) is half of the coefficient of ( x ), which is ( -28 ). Thus, ( a = 14 ), and we need ( a^2 = 196 ). Therefore, the value in place of the question mark is ( 196 ).
A trinomial is perfect square if it can be factored into the form
(b/2)^2= 64
There are infinitely many possible answers: c = ±4x + 33

No, it isn't. It would be, if that "36" in the middle were "24" instead.
