一道因式分解的难题
因式分解（1+y)^2-2x^2(1+y^2)+x^4(1-y)^2

答案

(1+y)^2-2x^2(1+y^2)+x^4(1-y)^2
=(1+y)^2+2(1+y)x^2(1+y)+x^4(1-y)^2-2(1+y)x^2(1-y)-2x^2(1+y^2)
=[(1+y)+x^2(1-y)]^2-2(1+y)x^2(1-y)-2x^2(1+y^2)
=[(1+y)+x^2(1-y)]^2-(2x)^2
=[(1+y)+x^2(1-y)+2x]·[(1+y)+x^2(1-y)-2x]
=(x^2-x^2y+2x+y+1)(x^2-x^2y-2x+y+1)
=[(x+1)^2-y(x^2-1)][(x-1)^2-y(x^2-1)]
=(x+1)(x+1-xy+y)(x-1)(x-1-xy-y)
