[Number Theory] Find all the ideals with the element 6 in them in Z[√-5]

Edited original question since I have now found the answer (I realize the title is inconsistent on the forum page), instead I am now trying to do part i) here

Is it possible to it this way:

Or is the structure of the question meaning my lecturer wants the actual ideals, and not just a general form? If so, how do i find which ideals contain 6.

I know the general form is

a = paqbrc

Whre a is an element of {0,1,2}, and b,c are an element of {0,1}

So there are 9 different combinations I think, do I have to check all 9? Or do all 9 have this property and there is no need to check?

Thanks

Hint: An ideal contains 6 iff it contains (6)=(2)(3) (principal ideals) iff it divides (2)(3).

So factor (2) and (3) in Z[sqrt{-6}].
 
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...
