The nonzero cubes modulo thirteen are , which excludes three. Thus this cubic has no root in its base field and is irreducible. For a root , the extension has degree three. The base field already contains the primitive cube root of unity , since and . Hence the other two roots are and , already in this extension, making it the full splitting field.
The Frobenius endomorphism satisfies , so it cycles all three roots. Therefore
