Yes ā it's quadratic in x^2. Let u = x^2, then
u^2 + 12u - 8.
You can also write it as a product (using u-roots u = -6 ± 2ā11):
x^4 + 12x^2 - 8 = (x^2 + 6 - 2ā11)(x^2 + 6 + 2ā11).
Or as a completed square:
x^4 + 12x^2 - 8 = (x^2 + 6)^2 - 44.
u^2 + 12u - 8.
You can also write it as a product (using u-roots u = -6 ± 2ā11):
x^4 + 12x^2 - 8 = (x^2 + 6 - 2ā11)(x^2 + 6 + 2ā11).
Or as a completed square:
x^4 + 12x^2 - 8 = (x^2 + 6)^2 - 44.
