(b) Let p be a prime that is congruent to 3 modulo 4. Let b ∈ Z. Let a = b (p+1)/4 . Show that a 2 ≡ ±b (mod p). (c) Give an algorithm to compute square roots of something modulo p, when p ≡ 3 (mod 4). Note: Not all things are square modulo p, so the algorithm should return the square root or inform you there is no square.
7.23 Theorem. Let p be a prime congruent to 3 modulo 4. Let a be a natural number with 1 a< p-1.

please prove proofs and do 7.4 7.2 Theorem. Let p be a prime, and let b and e be integers. Then there exists a linear change of variahle, yx+ with a an integer truns- farming the congruence xbx e0 (mod p) into a congruence of the farm y (mod p) for some integer 8 Our goal is to understand which integers are perfect squares of other inte- gers modulo a prime p. The first theorem below tells us that half...

Let p be an odd prime. Prove that if g is a primitive root modulo p, then g^(p-1)/2 ≡ -1 (mod p). Let p be an odd prime. Prove that if g is a primitive root modulo p, then go-1)/2 =-1 (mod p) Hint: Use Lemma 2 from Chapter 28 (If p is prime and d(p 1), then cd-1 Ξ 0 (mod p) has exactly d solutions). Let p be an odd prime. Prove that if g is a primitive...
76.Let p be an odd prime. Prove that if Ord, (a) = his even, then a/2 = -1 mod p. 77.let p be an odd prime. Prove that if Ord, (a) = 3, then 1+ a + a? = 0 mod p and Ord,(1 + a) = 6. 78.Show that 3 is a primitive root modulo 17. How many primitive roots does 17 have? Find them.
Please prove the 3 theorems, thank you! 7.6 Theorem. Let p be a prime. Then half the numbers not congruent to 0 modulo p in any complete nesidue system modulo p are quadratic residuess modulo p and half are quadratic non-residues modulo p. From clementary school days, we have known that the product of a pos- itive number and a positive number is positive, a positive times a negative is negative, and the product of two negative numbers is positive....
Let p be a prime. Consider the sequence 11,22,3, 44,55 modulo p. Prove that the resulting sequence is periodic with smallest period p(p - 1). (This means that p(p - 1) is the least among all positive integers l with the property that whenever n = m (mod l), we have n" = m" (mod p).) Let p be a prime. Consider the sequence 11,22,3, 44,55 modulo p. Prove that the resulting sequence is periodic with smallest period p(p -...
