This math topic focuses on practicing how to make polynomials into perfect squares by completing the square. Students are given quadratic expressions and asked to identify the constant term that will transform each quadratic into a perfect square trinomial. This skill involves understanding the structure of a quadratic expression and applying algebraic manipulation to achieve a specific form. Each question is presented with two potential answers. The problems are part of an introductory unit on completing the square specifically for polynomials.
