MCQ
$\sqrt{(a+b+c)^2+(a+b-c)^2+2\left(c^2-a^2-b^2-2 a b\right)}$ is equal to
  • 2c
  • B
    2a
  • C
    2b
  • D
    a + b + c

Answer

Correct option: A.
2c
(a)
We find that,
$(a+b+c)^2+(a+b-c)^2+2\left(c^2-a^2-b^2-2 a b\right)$
$=2\left(a^2+b^2+c^2+2 a b\right)+2\left(c^2-a^2-b^2-2 a b\right)=2\left(2 c^2\right)=4 c^2$
$\therefore \quad \sqrt{(a+b+c)^2+(a+b-c)^2+2\left(c^2-a^2-b^2-2 a b\right)}=2 c$
