Hi,
I have two questions.
1. Show that x^5+x^2+1=0 has four imaginary roots
2.Show that fermat's little theorem is a special case of Euler's theorem .
Thanks,
Chaand

#2:
Notice, by Descartes' rule of signs, the number of zeros of f(x) either is equal to the number of variations of sign of f(-x) or is less than that by an even integer.
Therefore, you have 1 negative root and 4 complex roots.
