\(a^4+a^3+a+1\)
\(=\left(a^4+a^3\right)+\left(a+1\right)\)
\(=a^3\left(a+1\right)+\left(a+1\right)\)
\(=\left(a+1\right)\left(a^3+1\right)\)
\(=\left(a+1\right)^2\left(a^2-a+1\right)\)
\(=\left(a+1\right)^2\left[\left(a-\frac{1}{2}\right)^2+\frac{3}{4}\right]\) \(\ge0\)
Dấu "=" xảy ra \(\Leftrightarrow\)\(a=-1\)
