"The constant" is the part of the trinomial among the following choices given in the question that will equal the product of p and q. The correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the fourth option or option "d". I hope that this is the answer that has actually come to your help.

Answer: D is the correct option. The constant part of the trinomial will be equal to the product of p and q.


Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Two binomials (x+p)and (x+q) such that they are multiplied to form a quadratic trinomial

[tex](x+p)(x+q)=x(x+q)+p(x+q)\text{[......distributive law]}\\\\=x^2+px+qx+pq\text{[........distributive law]}\\=x^2+(p+q)x+pq\text{[......combine like terms]}[/tex]

Here we can see the trinomial with three terms where first term is [tex]x^2[/tex] ,second term is (p+q)x and third term is the constant term with product of p and q.

Therefore, the constant part of the trinomial will be equal to the product of p and q.
