About article:
If $a,b,c$ are non-zero integers, we considerer the following problem: for which values of $n$ the line $ax+by+cz=0$ may be tangent to the curve $xn+yn=zn$? We give a partial solution: if $n=5$ or if $n-1$ is a prime a number, then the answer is the line cannot be tangent to the curve. This problem is strongly related to Fermat's Last Theorem.
