The area of a square park is $$16x^2 + 8x + 1.$$ What is the length of the side of the park?
Let the length of the side of the square park = $$a$$
Area of the square park =Â $$a^2$$
Given,
Area of the square park =Â $$16x^2 + 8x + 1$$
$$=$$> Â $$a^2=16x^2+8x+1$$
$$=$$> Â $$a^2=\left(4x\right)^2+2\left(4x\right)+1^2$$
$$=$$> Â $$a^2=\left(4x\right)^2+2.4x.1+1^2$$
$$=$$> Â $$a^2=\left(4x+1\right)^2$$
$$=$$> Â $$a=4x+1$$
$$\therefore\ $$Length of the side of the square park =Â $$4x+1$$
Hence, the correct answer is Option B
