Identify expression: Identify the expression to be evaluated.The expression given is (1+2)2, which means we need to calculate the square of the sum of 1 and 2.
Calculate sum: Calculate the sum inside the parentheses.(1+2)=3We add the numbers inside the parentheses to get the sum before squaring it.
Square sum: Square the sum.(1+2)2=32Now we need to square the sum we found in Step 2.
Evaluate result: Evaluate the square of 3. 32=3×3=9Multiplying 3 by itself gives us the square of 3.
