x4 - 5x2 + 4
= x4 - x2 - 4x2 + 4
= x2( x2 - 1) - 4( x2 - 1)
= ( x2 - 1)( x2 - 22)
= ( x - 1)( x + 1)( x - 2)( x + 2)
\(x^4-5x^2+4=x^4-4x^2+4-x^2=\left(x^2-2\right)^2-x^2\)
\(=\left(x^2-2-x\right)\left(x^2-2+x\right)=\left(x^2-x-2\right)\left(x^2+x-2\right)\)
x4 - 5x2 + 4
= x4 - x2 - 4x2 + 4
= x2( x2 - 1) - 4( x2 - 1)
= ( x2 - 1)( x2 - 22)
= ( x - 1)( x + 1)( x - 4)( x + 4)
\(x^4-5x^2+4\\ =x^4-x^2-4x^2+4\\ =\left(x^4-x^2\right)-\left(4x^2-4\right)\\ =x^2\left(x^2-1\right)-4\left(x^2-1\right)\\ =\left(x^2-4\right)\left(x^2-1\right)\\ =\left(x-2\right)\left(x+2\right)\left(x-4\right)\left(x+4\right)\)
x4 - 5x2 + 4
= x4 - x2 - 4x2 + 4
= x2( x2 - 1) - 4( x2 - 1)
= ( x2 - 1)( x2 - 22)
