$$ lvert1+x(1-x)rvert< lvert1-xrvert$$



How do I solve for $x$? I'm having a hard time finding the intervals.

          $lvert1+x(1-x)rvert< lvert1-xrvert$



          $Leftrightarrow |-(x^2-x-1)|<|1-x|$



          $Leftrightarrow (x^2-x-1)^2<(1-x)^2$



          $Leftrightarrow x(x-2)(x^2-2)<0$



          Can you solve it now?

            If $x geq 1$ then the inequality implies $1+x(1-x) < x-1$ or which give $x >sqrt 2$. But we also need $-1-x(1-x) < x-1$ which means $x <2$. Hence $sqrt 2 <x<2$. Similarly, for $x<1$ we get $-sqrt 2 <x<0$. Hence the solution set is $(-sqrt 2,0)cup (sqrt 2 ,2)$.
