The perfect square
Let's highlight the perfect square of the square three-member
$$- y^{2} + \left(2 x^{2} - x y\right)$$
Let us write down the identical expression
$$- y^{2} + \left(2 x^{2} - x y\right) = - \frac{9 y^{2}}{8} + \left(2 x^{2} - x y + \frac{y^{2}}{8}\right)$$
or
$$- y^{2} + \left(2 x^{2} - x y\right) = - \frac{9 y^{2}}{8} + \left(\sqrt{2} x - \frac{\sqrt{2} y}{4}\right)^{2}$$
in the view of the product
$$\left(- \sqrt{\frac{9}{8}} y + \left(\sqrt{2} x + - \frac{\sqrt{2}}{4} y\right)\right) \left(\sqrt{\frac{9}{8}} y + \left(\sqrt{2} x + - \frac{\sqrt{2}}{4} y\right)\right)$$
$$\left(- \frac{3 \sqrt{2}}{4} y + \left(\sqrt{2} x + - \frac{\sqrt{2}}{4} y\right)\right) \left(\frac{3 \sqrt{2}}{4} y + \left(\sqrt{2} x + - \frac{\sqrt{2}}{4} y\right)\right)$$
$$\left(\sqrt{2} x + y \left(- \frac{3 \sqrt{2}}{4} - \frac{\sqrt{2}}{4}\right)\right) \left(\sqrt{2} x + y \left(- \frac{\sqrt{2}}{4} + \frac{3 \sqrt{2}}{4}\right)\right)$$
$$\left(\sqrt{2} x - \sqrt{2} y\right) \left(\sqrt{2} x + \frac{\sqrt{2} y}{2}\right)$$
