Homework Statement

Homework Equations
KVL
KCL
V=IR, V=I^2R
The Attempt at a Solution
I have no idea where to start with this. We haven't learned voltage/current division yet. I am getting thrown by the i1 and i2 arrows pointing in weird directions. I don't know how to deal with this. Also we haven't done the principle of superposition nor the Thevenin stuff.
The chapter after the one this question was found in tells me about current divison and voltage division and in it it also mentions that anything in parallel with a voltage source can be ignored(as far as the circuit is concerned it isn't there), the same applies to anything in series with a current source. Knowing that, can't I just ignore the current source and just say that the voltage across the resistor 1V?
Super confused.
