a) \(\left(x+y+z\right)^3-x^3-y^3-z^3\)
\(=\left[\left(x+y\right)+z\right]^3-x^3-y^3-z^3\)
\(=\left[\left(x+y\right)^3+z^3+3.\left(x+y\right).z.\left(x+y+z\right)\right]-x^3-y^3-z^3\)
\(=\left[x^3+y^3+3xy.\left(x+y\right)+z^3+3\left(x+y\right).z.\left(x+y+z\right)\right]-x^3-y^3-z^3\)
\(=3xy\left(x+y\right)+3\left(x+y\right)z.\left(x+y+z\right)\)
\(=3.\left(x+y\right)\left(xy+zx+zy+z^2\right)\)
\(=3.\left(x+y\right)\left(y+z\right)\left(z+x\right)\)
b) \(x^4+2012x^2+2011x+2012\)
\(=x^4-x+2012x^2+2012x+2012\)
\(=x.\left(x^3-1\right)+2012.\left(x^2+x+1\right)\)
\(=x.\left(x-1\right)\left(x^2+x+1\right)+2012.\left(x^2+x+1\right)\)
\(=\left(x^2+x+1\right)\left(x^2-x+2012\right)\)
