Then, \(a = pm\) and +\(a^n = p^n \cdot m^n\). \(p^n\) is a factor of \(a^n\) and thus \(p^n | a^n\). + +\subsection{Question 17} +\label{sec:orgf0ee3ce} + +From the Fundamental Theorem of Arithmetic, both \(a\) and \(b\) must be a product of primes such that +\(a = (p \cdot p_1 \cdot p_2 \dotsc p_i)\) and \(b = (p \cdot q_1 \cdot q_2 \dotsc q_j)\) with each \(p_i\) and \(q_j\) being prime. + +Then, \(a^2 = (p \cdot p_1 \cdot p_2 \dotsc p_r) \cdot (p \cdot p_1 \cdot p_2 \dotsc p_r)\) and \(b^2 = (p \cdot q_1 \cdot q_2 \dotsc q_j) \cdot (p \cdot q_1 \cdot q_2 \dotsc q_j)\). +\(p^2\) is then a common factor of \(a^2\) and \(b^2\), and since each other factor (\(p_i^2\), \(q_i^2\)) is a square of a prime, there +can be no other greater common divisor than \(p^2\). + +Therefore, \((a, b) = p \Rightarrow (a^2, b^2) = p^2\) when p is prime. + +\subsection{Question 30} +\label{sec:org711c1fd} +\subsubsection{a} +\label{sec:org622b53c} +Firstly assume that there are \(a,b \ni a^2 = 2b^2\). Then, \(a^2 = p_1 p_2 \dotsc p_r\) and \(2b^2 = q_1 q_2 \dotsc q_s\), +and by the Fundamental Theorem of Arithmetic, every \(p_i = \pm q_j\). Since \(a^2\) is even as it is equal +to \(2b^2\), let \(p_1\) be the factor corresponding to a power of \(2\).
