for each group in the following list, find the order of the group and the order of each element in the group. what relation do you see between the orders of the elements of a group and the order of the group?



Answer :

The relation which we see between the orders of the elements of a group and the order of the group is smallest positive power.

G = U(20), order of each element of G = ?

The smallest positive power of an element that gives you your identity is the order of the element in a group. Three instances are covered: complex numbers, a 2x2 rotation matrix, and real number elements of finite order.

G = U(20) = {1,3,7,9,11,13,17,19}

⇒ 3° ≡ 1, 3¹ ≡ 3, 3² ≡ 9, 3³ ≡ 7, 3¹ ≡ 1(20)

order of 3 = 4

7⁴ ≡ 1 (mod 20) → order (7) = 4

9² ≡ 1 (mod 20) → order (9) = 2

11² ≡ 1 (mod 20) → order (11) = 2

13² ≡ 9(mod 20) → 13⁴ ≡ 81(mod 20) → 13⁴ ≡ 1 (mod 20)

order (13) = 4

order  07 = 4

17 ≡-3(mod 20) ⇒ 17² ≡ yy (mod 20)

⇒ 17⁴ ≡ 81 (mod 20) ≡ 1 (mod 20) ⇒

19 = -1 (mod 20)

19² ≡ 1 (mod 20) ⇒ order (19) = 2

Hence we get the requires answer.
