and only if m | n.
10. Let K be a finite field. Show that the product of all the nonzero elements of K is -1.
11. Write f(x) = x^16 - x in Z2[x] (that is, f(x) = x^2^4- x) as the product of all monic
irreducible polynomials over Z2 of degree dividing 4.
12. (a) Determine the number of monic irreducible polynomials of degree 6 in Z2[x].
