Answer

(x+1x1)2(x +\dfrac{1}{x}- 1)^2

Using the formula

(∵ (x + y - z)2 = x2 + y2 + z2 + 2xy - 2yz - 2xz)

=(x)2+(1x)2+(1)2+2×x×(1x)2×(1x)×12×1×x=x2+(1x2)+1+(2xx)(2x)2x=x2+(1x2)+1+2(2x)2x=x2+(1x2)+3(2x)2x= (x)^2 + \Big(\dfrac{1}{x}\Big)^2 + (1)^2 + 2 \times x \times \Big(\dfrac{1}{x}\Big) - 2 \times \Big(\dfrac{1}{x}\Big) \times 1 - 2 \times 1 \times x\\[1em] = x^2 + \Big(\dfrac{1}{x^2}\Big) + 1 + \Big(\dfrac{2x}{x}\Big) - \Big(\dfrac{2}{x}\Big) - 2x\\[1em] = x^2 + \Big(\dfrac{1}{x^2}\Big) + 1 + 2 - \Big(\dfrac{2}{x}\Big) - 2x\\[1em] = x^2 + \Big(\dfrac{1}{x^2}\Big) + 3 - \Big(\dfrac{2}{x}\Big) - 2x

Hence, (x+1x1)2(x +\dfrac{1}{x}- 1)^2 = x2 + (1x2)\Big(\dfrac{1}{x^2}\Big) + 3 - (2x)\Big(\dfrac{2}{x}\Big) - 2x
