Question
How can we use cases to prove that these questions are even?
**Mathematics Exploration: Parity of Integers**

**Proposition**  
If two integers have opposite parity, then their sum is odd.

---

**Additional Problems**

1. **Problem 1**  
   If \( n \in \mathbb{Z} \), then \( n^2 + 3n + 4 \) is even.  
   *(Use cases.)*

2. **Problem 2**  
   If two integers have opposite parity, then their product is even.  
   *(Use cases, and the phrase "without loss of generality.")*
