Question: 1. Let D be 2. Let G = {a + b D : a, b Q} {0}. Define multiplication by (a + b D)(c
1. Let D be 2. Let G = {a + b
D : a, b Q} \ {0}.
Define multiplication by (a + b
D)(c + d
D) = (ac bdD) + (ad + bc)
D. Show that
G is a group with respect to multiplication.
2. Let r be 5 Let H = {
x y
y x + ry
: x, y R}.
Show that H is a subgroup of GL2(R).
3. Let n be 2. Let G = {k N : 1 k n, gcd(k, n) = 1}.
Then G forms a group under multiplication modulo n. Write down the Cayley table for this
group, and determine whether or not the group is cyclic.
4. Let's do some permutation calculations.
(a) =(2051)(89)(92)
(b) =(205)(189)(92). Compute
2
1
, giving the answer as a
product of disjoint cycles.
5. n = 24. k = 3. Give an example of a
group G of order n and a subgroup H of order k. Then list all of the cosets of G/H.
