Find the Perfect Square Trinomial x^2-12x+b

$x^{2} - 12 x + b$

Step 1

Move $- 12 x$ .

$x^{2} + b - 12 x$

Step 2

To find the $c$ value $c = {(\frac{b}{2})}^{2}$ , divide the coefficient of $x$ by $2$ and square the result.

Divide $12$ by $2$ .

${(- 1 \cdot 6)}^{2}$

Multiply $- 1$ by $6$ .

${(- 6)}^{2}$

Raise $- 6$ to the power of $2$ .

$36$
