    Congruence Functions Solved

    Solve the congruence 42x 12 (mod 90). Problem: Solve the congruence 42x 12 (mod 90). Solution: We have gcd (42, 90) = 6, so by Theorem Given below, there is a solution since 6 is a factor of 12. The congruence ax b (mod n) has a solution if and only if b is divisible by d, where d = (a, n). If d | b, then there a

    Proof of the Irrationality using Euler's phi-function

    2. Apply the proof of the irrationality of sqrt(2) to a) sqrt(3) and b) sqrt(4). If the proof breaks down, indicate precisely why. 3. Euler's phi-function is defined such that for n > 0, phi(n) = |{m < n: gcd(m,n)=1}|. So, e.g., phi(4) = |{1,3}| = 2; phi(5) = |{1,2,3,4}| = 4. a. Show that for prime p, phi(p) = p-1.
