Q7) Factorise the polynomial f(x) = x3 − 2x2 + 2x − 1 into irreducible polynomials in Z5[x], i.e. represent f(x) as a product of irreducible polynomials in Z5[x]. Demonstrate that the polynomials you obtained are irreducible. I think i manged to factorise this polynomial. I found a factor to be 1 so i divided the polynomial by (x-1) as its a linear factor. So i get the form (x3 − 2x2 + 2x − 1) = (x2-x+1)*(x-1) which is...
