Q1) If (R, +,.) is integral domain, then the characteristic of R is either zero or prime. ==== Q2) Let (P(X),A,n) be a ring, where X {1, 2, 3}. Answer the following. (i) Find the zero element 0 and the identity element 1 in the ring P(X). (ii) Find the additive inverse of the element {1,3} in P(X). (iii) Find the characteristic of P(X). (iv) Find all the zero divisors. Q3) Any ring R is without zero divisor if and only if the cancellation laws for multiplication =ca where a 0 implies b = c. are satisfied, that is for a, b, c ER, ab = ac and ba =x, then Char(R) = 2. Q4) Let R be a ring with identity R. If for every x R it holds x²
