we love, we lie, and love lies. that's what make love beautiful..

Announcement

All of the solution will be post in comment, so anyone welcome to write the solution, the official (by me) solution will be post as soon as the problem solved.

Algebra - Durbin, John, R. Modern Algebra

12.12. Prove that if $a$ dan $b$ are integers, not both zero, then there are infinitely many pairs of integers $m,n$ such that $(a,b)=am+bn$.

12.13. Prove that if $c$ is a positive integer, then $(ac,bc)=(a,b)\cdot c$.

12.15. Prove that if $p$ is a prime and $a$ is an integer, and $a$ is not divisible by p, then $(a,p)=1$.

12.22. Prove that if $a,b,c$ are integers, not all zero, then they have a greatest common divisors, which can be written as a linear combination of $a,b,$ and $c$.

13.16. Prove that if $n$ is an integer, then $\sqrt{n}$ is rational iff $n$ is a perfect square.

13.19. Prove that if $a$ and $b$ are positive integers, then
$$(a,b)[a,b]=ab$$
when [a,b] is least common multiple.

Some Notes on Root of Unity

Let $a_,\dots,a_n$ be positive real numbers and let $\omega$ be a primitive nth root of unity. If the sides of an equiangular polygon have lengths $a_,\dots,a_n$ (in counterclockwise order) then
$$1+\omega+\omega^2+\dots+\omega^{n-1}=0$$;
$$a_1 + a_2 \omega +a_3 \omega ^2+ \dots + a_n \omega^{n-1}=0$$.
