Question
Consider the quotient ring R1 = Z3[x]/(x² + 1) and R2 = Z3[i] = {a + bi / a, b E Z3} with operations
(a + bi) + (a' + b'i) = (a + a') + (b +b')i,
(a + bi) · (a' + b'i) = (aa' – bb') + (ab' + a'b)i.
(a) Show an isomorphism o : Rị → R2 between these rings. (Explain the operations in R1 and how
ø respects them).
(b) Show that x2 +1 is irreducible in Z3[]. So R1 - R2 is a field.
(c) Find (1+ 2i)-1 in this field.
