36 it follows that x4 − x2 + 2 ̸= 0. 11. Proof. Consider the number
... a2 = 6b2 = 2(3b2 ). Because 3b2 is an integer, a2 is even. Thus a is even. So a = 2c, where c ∈ Z. Thus (2c)2 = 6b2 and so 4c2 = 6b2 . Therefore, 3b2 = 2c2 . Because c2 is an integer, 3b2 is even. Thus either 3 is even or b2 is even. Since 3 is not even, b2 is even and so b is even. However, since a ...

... This root√is a real number, but it is expressed by a formula that involves the complex number −3. So we find, surprisingly, that even if we wanted to restrict ourselves to real roots of equations, we would still need complex numbers to write down those roots. Since there was no escape, mathematician ...
