Question

Expand \((a - p + m)^{2}\).

This question was previously asked in
RRB Group D 2025 Question Paper (18-Aug-2026) (Shift 1)
The correct answer is

\(a^{2} + p^{2} + m^{2} - 2ap - 2pm + 2am\)

Using the standard identity for the square of a trinomial, (a − p + m)² expands to a² + p² + m² − 2ap − 2pm + 2am, obtained by squaring each term and doubling the product of every pair with its correct sign. Hence, a² + p² + m² − 2ap − 2pm + 2am is correct.
