If every element of a group G is its own inverse then G is called?
If every element of a group G is its own inverse then G is called?
Cyclic
Abelian
Finite
None of these
Explanation
If every element of a group
G
G
is its own inverse, then
g
2
=
e
g^2 = e
for all
g
∈
G
g in G
, meaning all elements are of order 2.
Such a group is
Abelian
because the group operation commutes:
(
g
h
)
2
=
e
(gh)^2 = e
implies
g
g
and
h
h
must commute.
