Q4(v):
Expand each of the following, using suitable identities:
(v) $(–2x + 5y – 3z)^2$
Solution :
Initial Setup & Theoretical Foundation
We are tasked with expanding the following algebraic expression:
$(-2x + 5y - 3z)^2$
[Per the fundamental algebraic identity for the square of a trinomial], the expansion of any three-term polynomial squared is governed by the following formula, derived from the distributive property of multiplication over addition:
$(a + b + c)^2 = a^2 + b^2 + c^2 + 2ab + 2bc + 2ca$
Step 1: Variable Mapping
To apply the identity correctly, we must map the components of our specific expression to the standard variables $a$, $b$, and $c$. It is critical to include the negative signs as part of the terms, as the standard identity assumes addition between all terms.
- Let $a = -2x$
- Let $b = 5y$
- Let $c = -3z$
Step 2: Substitution into the Identity
Substituting the mapped variables into the expansion formula yields:
$(-2x + 5y - 3z)^2 = (-2x)^2 + (5y)^2 + (-3z)^2 + 2(-2x)(5y) + 2(5y)(-3z) + 2(-3z)(-2x)$
Step 3: Expansion and Simplification of Individual Terms
We now systematically evaluate the squares and the cross-product terms [adhering strictly to the rules of exponentiation and sign multiplication].
1. Evaluating the Squared Terms:
- $a^2 = (-2x)^2 = (-2)^2 \cdot x^2 = 4x^2$
- $b^2 = (5y)^2 = 5^2 \cdot y^2 = 25y^2$
- $c^2 = (-3z)^2 = (-3)^2 \cdot z^2 = 9z^2$
[Note: The square of any real number, whether positive or negative, is always positive.]
2. Evaluating the Cross-Product Terms:
- $2ab = 2 \cdot (-2x) \cdot (5y) = 2 \cdot (-10xy) = -20xy$
- $2bc = 2 \cdot (5y) \cdot (-3z) = 2 \cdot (-15yz) = -30yz$
- $2ca = 2 \cdot (-3z) \cdot (-2x) = 2 \cdot (6zx) = 12zx$
Step 4: Final Assembly of the Polynomial
Combining all the simplified terms from Step 3 into a single polynomial expression:
$4x^2 + 25y^2 + 9z^2 + (-20xy) + (-30yz) + 12zx$
Resolving the adjacent signs (positive and negative) simplifies the expression to its standard form:
$4x^2 + 25y^2 + 9z^2 - 20xy - 30yz + 12zx$
Final Solution: The expanded form of $(-2x + 5y - 3z)^2$ is $4x^2 + 25y^2 + 9z^2 - 20xy - 30yz + 12zx$.
