Subproblem 1
Set the factor 'm2' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying
m2 = 0

Solving
m2 = 0

Move all terms containing m to the left, all other terms to the right.

Simplifying
m2 = 0

Take the square root of each side:
m = {0}
Subproblem 2
Set the factor '(1 + m)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying
1 + m = 0

Solving
1 + m = 0

Move all terms containing m to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-1' to each side of the equation.
1 + -1 + m = 0 + -1

Combine like terms: 1 + -1 = 0
0 + m = 0 + -1
m = 0 + -1

Combine like terms: 0 + -1 = -1
m = -1

Simplifying
m = -1
Subproblem 3
Set the factor '(-1 + m)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying
-1 + m = 0

Solving
-1 + m = 0

Move all terms containing m to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '1' to each side of the equation.
-1 + 1 + m = 0 + 1

Combine like terms: -1 + 1 = 0
0 + m = 0 + 1
m = 0 + 1

Combine like terms: 0 + 1 = 1
m = 1

Simplifying
m = 1
Solution
m = {0, -1, 1}
