Given:

Simplify (5z - 7y)2 + (7z + 5y)2 - 49z2

Formula used:

(a + b)2 = a2 + 2ab + b2

(a - b)2 = a2 - 2ab + b2

Calculation:

(5z - 7y)2 + (7z + 5y)2 - 49z2

⇒ (25z2 - 2 × 5z × 7y + 49y2) + (49z2 + 2 × 7z × 5y + 25y2) - 49z2

⇒ 25z2 - 70zy + 49y2 + 49z2 + 70zy + 25y2 - 49z2

⇒ 25z2 + 49z2 - 49z2 + 49y2 + 25y2

⇒ 25z2 + 74y2

∴ The correct answer is option (4).
