The only known powers of 2 with all digits even are 2 1 = 2, 2 2 = 4, 2 3 = 8, 2 6 = 64 and 2 11 = 2048. [12] The first 3 powers of 2 with all but last digit odd is 2 4 = 16, 2 5 = 32 and 2 9 = 512. The next such power of 2 of form 2 n should have n of at least 6 digits.
Graphs of y = b x for various bases b: base 10, base e, base 2, base 1 / 2 . Each curve passes through the point (0, 1) because any nonzero number raised to the power of 0 is 1. At x = 1, the value of y equals the base because any number raised to the power of 1 is the number itself.
65536 is the natural number following 65535 and preceding 65537.. 65536 is a power of two: (2 to the 16th power).. 65536 is the smallest number with exactly 17 divisors (but there are smaller numbers with more than 17 divisors; e.g., 180 has 18 divisors) (sequence A005179 in the OEIS).
It is also equal to 3 2 (see tetration). The aliquot sum of 16 is 15, within an aliquot sequence of four composite members (16, 15, 9, 4, 3, 1, 0) that belong to the prime 3-aliquot tree. Sixteen is the largest known integer n, for which + is prime. It is the first Erdős–Woods number. [2]
In the last section of the Disquisitiones [50] [51] Gauss proves [52] that a regular n-gon can be constructed with straightedge and compass if φ(n) is a power of 2. If n is a power of an odd prime number the formula for the totient says its totient can be a power of two only if n is a first power and n − 1 is a power of 2. The primes that ...
[1] Every positive integer can be expressed as the sum of at most 19 fourth powers; every integer larger than 13792 can be expressed as the sum of at most 16 fourth powers (see Waring's problem). Fermat knew that a fourth power cannot be the sum of two other fourth powers (the n = 4 case of Fermat's Last Theorem; see Fermat's right triangle ...

Let the right triangle have sides (u, v, w), where the area equals uv / 2 and, by the Pythagorean theorem, u 2 + v 2 = w 2. If the area were equal to the square of an integer s uv / 2 = s 2. then by algebraic manipulations it would also be the case that 2uv = 4s 2 and −2uv = −4s 2. Adding u 2 + v 2 = w 2 to these equations gives
