Which of the following expressions can be written as 12(a + b)? a.(12 + a) ∙ (12 + b)
b.12a + 12b
c.(12 + a) + (12 + b)
d.12a ∙ 12b

12a + 12b

Step-by-step explanation: Use the distributive property. The property is that you can take the 12 and multiply it by both letters inside separately.

12(a+b) = (12 * a)+(12 * b) = 12a+12b

It's easier to see a picture of how the distributive property works.

1)is not similar since corresponding sides are not in the same ratio

2)are similar since corresponding sides are in the same ratio and corresponding angles are equal
