I need to use the congruence to solve this question. My strategy is to write the question as a congruence and then simplify the congruence so that I can apply Congruence to remainder to get the remainder. My work is as follows:
We know that
##453\equiv 53 (mod\, 100)##
Thus,
##453^{234}\equiv 53^{234} (mod\, 100)## by Congruence Power.
Also since
##53^2\equiv 9 (mod\, 100)##,
##53^234\equiv 9^{117} (mod\, 100)##.
So by the transitivity property, we have
##453^{234}\equiv 3^{234} (mod\, 100)##
But I am stuck here. Can someone help me out, please?

Why not do powers of 3 on a calculator (or better on a spreadsheet) until something low modulo 100 appears?
 
Prove $$\int\limits_0^{\sqrt2/4}\frac{1}{\sqrt{x-x^2}}\arcsin\sqrt{\frac{(x-1)\left(x-1+x\sqrt{9-16x}\right)}{1-2x}} \, \mathrm dx = \frac{\pi^2}{8}.$$ Let $$I = \int\limits_0^{\sqrt 2 / 4}\frac{1}{\sqrt{x-x^2}}\arcsin\sqrt{\frac{(x-1)\left(x-1+x\sqrt{9-16x}\right)}{1-2x}} \, \mathrm dx. \tag{1}$$ The representation integral of ##\arcsin## is $$\arcsin u = \int\limits_{0}^{1} \frac{\mathrm dt}{\sqrt{1-t^2}}, \qquad 0 \leqslant u \leqslant 1.$$ Plugging identity above into ##(1)## with ##u...
