... into a division algebra. Since N (x) ≥ 0 for any p x ∈ O, we can define a non-negative real-valued function k·k on O by kxk = N (x). This is clearly well-defined and kxk = 0 iff x = 0. In addition, it is not hard to see that, for any r ∈ R and x ∈ O, krxk = |r|kxk, and that k·k satisfies the triangu ...

... In Problem 2, you explored the affect of multiplying an equation by a constant and found that (although it may change the appearance) it does not change the equality relationship that existed in the original equation. In this problem, an additional linear equation is introduced to form a system of t ...
