Question 5099
{{{ (4x^2-1)/(x^2-2X-1)}}} divided by {{{(x-2)/(x^2+1 ) }}}


Invert the second fraction and multiply.  FACTOR everything you can factor!
{{{ (2x-1)(2x+1)/(x^2-2x-1) * (x^2+1)/(x-2 ) }}}


This is unusual in that nothing divides out, so it does not reduce.  Did you copy this problem correctly?  Is it a trick question??
