The expansion of a plus b whole squared identity can be derived in algebraic mathematics by multiplying the binomial $a+b$ with the same binomial, using the multiplication of algebraic expressions.
Multiply the binomial $a+b$ by itself to express the product of them in mathematical form.
$(a+b) \times (a+b)$
According to the exponentiation, the product of two same binomials can be written in exponential notation.
$\implies$ $(a+b) \times (a+b)$ $\,=\,$ $(a+b)^2$
It is a special case in algebra. Hence, the product of two same sum basis binomials is often called as the special product of binomials or the special binomial product.
$\implies$ $(a+b)^2$ $\,=\,$ $(a+b) \times (a+b)$
The $a$ plus $b$ whole square represents the square of sum of two terms and it can be expanded by multiplying the algebraic expression $a+b$ with same binomial. Therefore, multiply the algebraic expressions by using multiplication of algebraic expressions.
$\implies$ $(a+b)^2$ $\,=\,$ $(a+b) \times (a+b)$
$\implies$ $(a+b)^2$ $\,=\,$ $a \times (a+b) +b \times (a+b)$
$\implies$ $(a+b)^2$ $\,=\,$ $a \times a + a \times b + b \times a + b \times b$
$\implies$ $(a+b)^2$ $\,=\,$ $a^2+ab+ba+b^2$
The square of sum of terms $a$ and $b$ is expanded as an algebraic expression $a^2+ab+ba+b^2$. According to commutative property, the product of $a$ and $b$ is equal to the product of $b$ and $a$. So, $ab = ba$.
$\implies$ $(a+b)^2$ $\,=\,$ $a^2+ab+ab+b^2$
Now, add the like algebraic terms in the algebraic expression by the addition of algebraic terms for simplifying the expansion of the $a$ plus $b$ whole square identity.
$\implies$ $(a+b)^2$ $\,=\,$ $a^2+2ab+b^2$
$\,\,\, \therefore \,\,\,\,\,\,$ $(a+b)^2$ $\,=\,$ $a^2+b^2+2ab$
Algebraically, it is proved that the $a$ plus $b$ whole square is equal to the $a$ squared plus $b$ squared plus two times product of $a$ and $b$. It is used as formula in mathematics to expand square of sum of two terms.
