Question

using identities
evauate (101)²​

Answer 1

(101)²

=(100+1)²

by identity (a+b)²= a²+b²+2ab

100²+1²+2×100×1

10000+1+200

10201

Answer 2

Answer: 10201

Step-by-step explanation:

We can evaluate this easily, without actually multiplying, by using the following identity.

(a + b)² = a² + b² + 2ab

We can write 101 = 100 + 1.

(101)²

= (100 + 1)²

= (100)² + (1)² + 2(100)(1)

= 10000 + 1 + 200

= 10201

More information:

Have you wondered why (a + b)² = a² + b² + 2ab? Read on if you don't know and want to know.

(a + b)²

= (a + b)(a + b)

=  a(a + b) + b(a + b)

= a² + ab + ab + b²

= a² + 2ab + b²
