Question:

Let X be the D4-set in Example 16.8. 

a. Does D4 act faithfully on X? 

b. Find all orbits in X on which D4 acts faithfully as a sub-D4-set.

Data from in Example 16.8

Let G be the group D4 = {p0, p1, p2, p3, μ1, μ2, δ1, δ2 } of symmetries of the square, described. In Fig. 16.9 we show the square with vertices 1, 2, 3, 4 as in Fig. 8.11. We also label the sides s1 s2, s3 , s4 , the diagonals d1 and d2, vertical and horizontal axes m1 and m2, the center point C, and midpoints Pi of the sides si. Recall that pi corresponds to rotating the square counterclockwise through πi/2 radians, µi
