EXTENSION FIELD
The lecturer proved that: Q( √2, √3) = { a + b √2 + c √3 + d √6 }
Can someone please explain the highlight parts in his works for me? I don't get it:
- Why if F is a field then F is the smallest ?
- Why √2 not in Q, then we have those stuff = 0 ?
- Similarly, why √3 not in Q, then we have those stuff = 0. ?
Thank you.
