"Assume we know that $\mathbb{Q}(2^{1/5})$ has dimension 5 as a vectorspace over $\mathbb{Q}$". What does this mean? What does it mean to consider $\mathbb{Q}(2^{1/5})$ as a vector space?
My next task is to prove that $2^{-1/5} + 1/11$ is algebraic over $\mathbb{Q}$, can i have any hints on this one?
