    The factors of \[({{a}^{2}}+4{{b}^{2}}+4b-4ab-2a-8)\]are

    A) \[(a-2b-4)(a-2b+2)\]

    B) \[(a-b+2)(a-4b-4)\]

    C) \[(a+2b-4)(a+2b+2)\]

    D) \[(a+2b-1)(a-2b+1)\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    \[{{a}^{2}}+4{{b}^{2}}+4b-4ab-2a-8\]
    On adding and subtracting 2a and 4b, we get
    \[{{a}^{2}}+4{{b}^{2}}+4b-4ab-2a-8+2a-2a-4b+4b\]
    \[=a\,(a-2b+2)-2b\,(a-2b+2)-4\,(a-2b+2)\]
    \[=(a-2b+2)(a-2b-4)\]
