Let F be a finite field, and f(x) be a polynomial over F of degree m, with nonzero constant term. Let a be a root of fin some extension field K of F. Define the reciprocal of f to be: g(x)=x" f(x') (a) Show that g(x) is a polynomial over F of degree m. (b) Show that a' is a root of g(x). (c) Show that f is irreducible if and only if g is irreducible. (d) Show that a is a generator for K* if and only if a' is a generator for K* (In this case we say that f is a primitive polynomial for K*.)
