To determine the value of ( b ) that makes the trinomial a perfect square, you typically want to express the trinomial in the form ( (x + a)^2 ), which expands to ( x^2 + 2ax + a^2 ). By comparing coefficients, if the trinomial is in the form ( x^2 + bx + c ), you can set ( b = 2a ) and ( c = a^2 ). Thus, you can solve for ( b ) given specific values of ( a ) or ( c ). If you have a specific trinomial in mind, please provide it for precise calculations.

What value, in place of the question mark, makes the polynomial below a perfect square trinomial?x2 + 12x+ ?

True

None does, since there is no polynomial below.
x2 + 22x + 121 to get this divide 22 by 2... then square the answer you get from that 22/2 = 11 112 = 121
False. It has to be either "- 24x" or "+ 36". These would factor as (3x - 4)2 and (3x - 6)2 respectively.
