What is the first line in this proof? • Assume G is an abelian group. • Assume G is a cyclic group. • Assume a * b = b * a.
What is the next line in this proof? • Then G is a subgroup of H. • Then G contains inverses. • Let a, b be any two elements in G. • Let H be any subgroup in G.
What is the last line in this proof? • Thus G is abelian. • Thus H contains inverses. • Therefore H is cyclic. • Then G has primary order.
What is the second to last line in this proof? • Then G is cyclic. • Then G has finite order. • Then H = <?> for some ? in G. • Then H has finite order.
