... and look at the terms not divisible by 3.) But now, observe that the equation asks us to find a natural number such that its square is two more than an integer multiple of 3 - that is, it must leave a remainder of 2 when divided by 3. Our casework above proves this is impossible. (b) Suppose that th ...

Fermat`s Last Theorem - UCLA Department of Mathematics
... Proofs for specific exponents were given in the years following Fermat’s death. Using Fermat’s method of descent, Euler (1770) gave a proof of the n = 3 case. Legendre and Dirichlet (1823) gave a proof of the n = 5 case, and Lamé (1839) gave a proof of the n = 7 case. At this point the proofs were ...

... for a {k,0} base is itself almost immediate from Kakeya1 s condition for a 2-base. This follows from the observation that {r. } is a {k,0} base if and only if a certain augmented sequence (obtained by repeating each r., in order k. times) is a 2-base; the details are given below in Theorem 1. ...

... If x is odd and y is odd, then x · y is odd. The two statements in this activity are logically equivalent. We now have the choice of proving either of these statements. If we prove one, we prove the other, or if we show one is false, the other is also false. The second statement is Theorem 1.8, whic ...
