E=Q(4th root of 2, i) and G is the galios group of E over Q
I found the minimal polynomial p(x) of 4th root of 2 over Q and Q(i) to be
x^4-2
I'm trying to show
(1) the galios group H of E over Q(i) is a normal subgroup of G
(2) If K is the galios group of Q(i) over Q show that it is isomorphic to G/H
so I can ultimately show that G is actually D4 (the group of symmetries)
but I'm compeltely stuck
