Answer:
Prove that 4n2+4 is not divisible by 19 for every n∈N .
More generally, for primes q of the form 4k+3 and any n∈N , q∤(n2+1) .
Suppose, to the contrary, that q∣(n2+1) for some prime q of the form 4k+3 and some n∈N . Then q∤n , and we have
1≡nq−1=(n2)(q−1)/2≡(−1)(q−1)/2≡−1(modq) .
This impossibility proves the claim.
