Question:

(a) Let L and M be intermediate fields of the extension K ⊂ F, of finite dimension over K. Assume that [LM : K] = [L : K][M : K] and prove that L ∩ M = K.

(b) The converse of (a) holds if [L : K] or [M : K] is 2.

(c) Using a real and a nonreal cube root of 2 give an example where L ∩ M = K, [L : K] = [M : K] = 3, but [LM : K] < 9.
