Show that this ring is semi-simple
2
$begingroup$
Let $mathbb{F}_q$ be a field of order $q = p^m$ , where $p$ is the characteristic of the field; a prime. Consider the ring $$R_n = mathbb{F}_q[x]/langle x^n - 1 rangle $$ Now, I've read that this ring is semi-simple when $p$ does not divide $n$ , but no proof was given. Does anyone know how to prove it or somewhere where I can read the proof? Thank you.
