let f(x)=2x^2 −2 and g(x)=x^4 −3x^3  +x^2  +3x−2 ⇒  g(1) =1−3+1+3−2 =0 and g(−1) =1+3+1−3−2=0 ⇒x^2 −1 divide g(x) ⇒  g(x)=λ(x^2 −1)Q(x) with deg Q =2   we see that λ =1  Δ(f,g) =Δ(2(x^2 −1),(x^2 −1)Q(x)) =(x^2 −1)Δ(2,Q(x)) but  Q(x)=x^2  +ax +b =2((1/2)x^2  +(a/2)x +(b/2)) =2v(x)⇒Δ(2,Q(x))  =Δ(2,2v(x))=2Δ(1,v(x))=2 ⇒Δ(f,g)=2(x^2 −1)  another way all roots of f are roots of g ⇒ f divide g ⇒Δ(f,g)=f .
