Answer:

x^2−18x+81

x^2+2x+1

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A trinomial is a perfect square trinomial if it can be factored into a binomial multiplied to itself

so

[tex]a^2\pm2ab+b^2=(a\pm b)(a\pm b)=(a\pm b)^2[/tex]

Verify each case

case a) x^2−10x−25

we know that

[tex](x-5)^2=x^2-10x+25[/tex]

therefore

Is not a perfect square trinomial

case b) x^2−18x+81

we know that

[tex](x-9)^2=x^2-18x+81[/tex]

therefore

Is a perfect square trinomial

case c) x^2+2x+1

we know that

[tex](x+1)^2=x^2+2x+1[/tex]

therefore

Is a perfect square trinomial

case d) x^2+7x+49

we know that

[tex](x+3.5)^2=x^2+7x+12.25[/tex]

therefore

Is not a perfect square trinomial
