Let X1 and X2 be independent random variables from a normal distribution with mean equal to one and standard deviation equal to one. Derive the distribution of (X2 + X1-2)^2/(X2 - X1)^2. If the resulting distribution is one of the special distributions, identify the distribution and all relevant parameters; otherwise, state "unknown".

Let X1 and X2 be independent random variables from a normal distribution with mean equal to one and standard deviation equal to one. Derive the distribution of (X2 + X1-2)^2/(X2 - X1)^2. If the resulting distribution is one of the special distributions, identify the distribution and all relevant parameters; otherwise, state "unknown".

Let X1 and X2 be independent random variables from a normal
distribution with mean equal to one and standard deviation
equal to one. Derive the distribution of (X2 + X1-2)^2/(X2 -
X1)^2. If the resulting distribution is one of the special
distributions, identify the distribution and all relevant parameters;
otherwise, state "unknown".
