<p>Hi!
I have some problems with my university task:
find the ideal class group in Z[$\sqrt{-89}$]</p>
<p>I have found all ideals:
$(1,\frac{3+i*\sqrt{89}}{7})$, $(1,\frac{1+i*\sqrt(89)}{18})$, etc.
But the problem is to find out how do they multiply to each other
For example, if I multiply $(1,\frac{3+i*\sqrt{89}}{7})$ to itself I have $(1,\frac{3+i*\sqrt{89}}{7},\frac{-80+2*i*\sqrt{89}}{49})$ but I really don't have any idea which element of my group this ideal is.</p>
