Apprentice Training: Verifying a Perfect Square Layout

Imagine you are the apprentice. Recall and write down the three specific mathematical checks (criteria) you must perform to verify that the trinomial 64y2−80y+25{}64y^2 - 80y + 25 fits the perfect square trinomial pattern a2−2ab+b2a^2 - 2ab + b^2. For each check, show the specific terms or calculations from the trinomial, and clearly state the resulting values of aa and bb.
