Answer:
tried to prove this by proof by contradiction: if n is a perfect square, then its square root, say x, is an integer. Suppose n is of the form 4k+3. Then
x2=4k+3
which we can also write as
x2≡3mod4
However, this congruence has no solutions. Therefore our initial assumption that n is of the form 4k+3 was false and n cannot be of the form 4k+3.
I know there's something missing or wrong in this proof but I don't know what. Any help would be appreciated.
Step-by-step explanation:
hope this will help
