field theory - Prove that [mathbbQ(sqrt[r]p1,cdots,sqrt[r]pn):mathbbQ]=rn

We have n distinct prime numbers p1,,pn and I am asked to show that [Q(rp1,,rpn):Q]=rn where rN.



I tried to solve it by induction. The case n=1 is trivial. If we let



F=Q(rp1,,rpn)



E=Q(rp1,,rpn,rpn+1)



L=Q(rp2,,rpn)




then by the inductive hypothesis [F:Q]=rn, [L:Q]=rn1, [F:L]=r. We want to show that [E:F]=r. We know that [E:F]r. If $[E:F]

iI{0,,r1}Xrpn+1ζir where $\left |I\right |=m

Therefore rpmn+1=r1i=0ai(rp1)i where aiL.



I don't know how to continue, I don't even know if I am doing the right thing.



Is it true that the trace over F/L of rpi1 equals 0 for every i0? Because in that case taking trace over F/L we would obtain 0=ra0, thereby a0=0 and I think that could be helpful.
