This question was given, when I was preparing, by my teacher.
He gave 15 minutes.
Please try....

Let 'a' and 'b' be positive integers such that (ab + 1) divides (a^2 + b^2).
Then show that :
(a^2 + b^2) ÷ (ab + 1) is a square of an integer.

DON'T ATTEMPT IF YOU HAVE DONE BEFORE OR ELSE IT WOULD PROVE TOO EASY.

I could only figure the half way, my sir helped me out.

This was in my book:
The remainder when x^45 is divided by x^2 - 1 is :-
a)2x
b)-x
c)0
d)x
e)None of these

THIS WAS UNDER THE LEVEL 1 QUESTION SECTION.
Try to answer and it would be good if you show the method.
