abstract algebra - Constructing a multiplication table for a finite field


Let f(x)=x3+x+1Z2[x] and let F=Z2(α), where α is a root of f(x). Show that F is a field and construct a multiplication table for F.





Can you please help me approach this problem? I've tried searching around, but I don't really know what I'm looking for!



Thanks.
