25x^2+60x+36=(5x+6)^225x2+60x+36=(5x+6)2

Explanation:

In 25x^2+60x+3625x2+60x+36, the first and third term are complete square as 25x^2=(5x)^225x2=(5x)2 and 36=6^236=62 and middle term is double the product of 5x5x and 33 i.e. 2xx5x xx6=60x2×5x×6=60x

Hence using the identity (a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2(a+b)2=a2+2ab+b2

25x^2+60x+3625x2+60x+36

= (5x)^2+2xx5x xx6x+6^2(5x)2+2×5x×6x+62

= (5x+6)^2(5x+6)2
