If a = 0.1039, then the value of 4a2 - 4a + 1 + 3a is:
Answer: Option
Explanation:
4a2 - 4a + 1 + 3a = (1)2 + (2a)2 - 2 x 1 x 2a + 3a
= (1 - 2a)2 + 3a
= (1 - 2a) + 3a
= (1 + a)
= (1 + 0.1039)
= 1.1039

Why should we take (1-2a) and the given is 4a^2 -4a+1 we can also take 2a-1.

We can use both (2a-1), (1-2a). Its just based on options they given.

Please explain me these step
=(1 - 2a)^2 + 3a
= (1 - 2a) + 3a
=(1 - 2a)^2 + 3a
= (1 - 2a) + 3a

2a<1 so use (1-2a)^2.
But (2a-1)^2 is a imaginary number.
But (2a-1)^2 is a imaginary number.

Please clarify why you are using (1-2a)^2. Why not (2a-1)^2.
