algebra precalculus - Why does k2+4k+4 become (k+2)2?



I'm studying maths after a lot of years without having a look at it.



Currently I'm doing proof by induction, I have a doubt when doing an exercise.




If you have a look at this video at minute 5:15 , [k2+4k+4] becomes (k+2)2 and I don't understand why.



Is there any rule or theorem that explains this?


Answer



depending on the area of rectangle



enter image description here



k2+2k+2k+4=(k+2)(k+2)



(k2+4k+4)=(k+2)2
