Singular solution of $y^2(y - xp) = x^4p^2$ Given differential equation, $y^2(y - xp) = x^4p^2$ where {$p = dy/dx$}
To find the singular solution, 
I have extracted the p-discriminant relation which is, $y^3x^2(y + 4x^2) = 0$
From here it is evident that all $x = 0, y = 0$ and $y + 4x^2 = 0$ are the singular solutions when tested by putting back in the differential equation but my text book doesn't mention anything about $x=0$ as singular solution. Am I doing any mistake?
 A: $$y^2\left(y - x\frac{dy}{dx}\right) = x^4\left(\frac{dy}{dx}
\right)^2$$
$$y(x)=-4x^2\quad\text{is a singular solution.}$$
$$y(x)=0\quad\text{is a singular solution.}$$
$x(y)=0$ is not solution of the ODE because $\frac{dy}{dx}$ is infinite which doesn't agree with the ODE.
$(x=0, y=0)$ isn't a function but a point. Thus it isn't a solution of the ODE.
The general solution of the ODE is :
$$y(x)=\frac{c^2 x}{x-c}$$
The above singular solutions are the envelope of the general solution.

IN ADDITION, ANSWER TO THE COMMENT from  Hari Prasad (Too long answer to be edited in the comments section) :
The argument raised is :

When $x=0$ , then $dx/dy =0$ , which means $1/p=0$ , then   $y^2(y/p^2−x/p)−x^4= 0$ when $x=0$  (implicitly $1/p=0$) . So, even $x=0$ is satisfying the differential equation. Is this thinking wrong ?

Let me remind this well-known argument : Given an ODE $$f(x,y,p)=0\tag 1$$ and multiplying by $g(x,y,p)$ gives a different ODE : $$g(x,y,p)f(x,y,p)=0\tag 2$$ which is not equivalent to Eq.$(1)$.The solutions of $(2)$ are the solutions of $(1)$ and the solutions of $(3)$ : $$g(x,y,p)=0\tag 3$$
Thus a solution of $(2)$ is not necessarily a solution of $(1)$. $$ $$ 
In your argument the equation $$f(x,y,p)=y^2(y-xp)-x^4p^2=0\tag 4$$ is multiplied by $g(x,y,p)=\frac{1}{p^2}$. So the solutions of $$y^2(\frac{y}{p^2}-\frac{x}{p})-x^4=0\tag 5$$ are not only the solutions of $(4)$ but in addition the solutions of $$\frac{1}{p^2}=\left(\frac{dx}{dy}\right)^2=0\tag 6$$ which are $x(y)=c$ and among them $x(y)=0$. 
The solution $x=0$ is solution of $(5)$ but not necessarily solution of $(4)$. 
Thus your argument is not correct: It doesn't prove that $x(y)=0$ is solution of Eq.$(4)$.
A: Although I agree with all the comments given by @JJacquelin. I think I arrived at a more simple argument,
While getting the p-discriminant relation of
=> $y^2(y - xp) - x^4p^2 = 0 $ 
=> $x^4p^2 + xy^2p - y^3 = 0$   {say $Ap^2 + Bp + C = 0$}
then, its p-discriminant relation is $B^2 - 4AC = 0$ {$y^3x^2(y + 4x^2) = 0$} given $A\neq0$ {$x\neq0$}.
So, I think x$=0$ can be directly eliminated here.
