1. (15 points) For each of the following statements, indicate whether the
statement is true or false and justify your answer with a proof or a counterexample. (a) Let p be an odd prime. If a, ß € F, are nonsquares, then aß is a square. P (b) If m € N with m ≥ 3, then the product of the elements in (Z/mZ)× is congruent to -1 modulo m. (c) The equation X² – 13Y² such that x² = 7 has an integral solution, i.e., there is a pair (x, y) = Z² 13y² = 7. (d) If p is prime and 3 € FX, then the equation X² – X = ß has no
solutions in Fp.
