Factorise x4 + 4y4. Use this to prove that 20114 + 64 is a composite number.
⇒ x4 + 4y4
⇒ (x2)2 + (2y2)2
⇒ (x2 + 2y2)2 - 2× x2 × 2y2
⇒ (x2 + 2y2)2 - 4x2y2 ![]()
⇒ (x2 + 2y2)2 – (2xy)2
⇒ (x2 + 2y2 + 2xy)(x2 + 2y2 – 2xy)
Now we get,
⇒ 20114 + 64
⇒ 20114 + 4 × 24
⇒ (20112)2 + (2×22)2
⇒ (20112 + 42)2 - 2× 20112 × 2 × 22
⇒ (20112 + 42)2 – 4 × 20112 × 22
⇒ (20112 + 42)2 – (2×2011×2)2
(
)
⇒ (20112 + 42 + 2×2011×2)(20112 + 42 – 2×2011×2)
⇒ (4044121 + 16 + 8044)(4044121 + 16 – 8044)
⇒ 4052181 × 4036093
