Let A be the set of all non-singular matrices over real number and let ∗ be the matrix multiplication operation. Then

answer - A is group but not abelian

DOUBT - in order to be a group it should first first be a monoid ( have identity element)

what will be the identity matrix here ?

Firstly, What is identity element for this group?
$A = \{0,1,2,3,4,5,6, \ldots 23\}$ $a*b =(a+b)\mod{24}$ How many proper subgroups does the group $G(A,*)$ have?

functions | composite | identity
A : R- {2} B: R-{1} f:A->B g:B->A f(x) = $\frac{x}{x-2}$ g(x) = $\frac{2x}{x-1}$ Q1) find IA and IB Q2) find fog and gof Q3] what is your comparision

Identity of TOC
$(a+b)^* =a^*(ba^*)^*$ As this identity already proved. But $a^*(ba^*)^*$ couldn't generate "bab" . But $(a+b)^*$ could generate all strings over {a,b}. Then the above identity seen to be proved false. Please discuss how this is possible.

How to check if a function follows identity?
For example, if we want to check if a function follow commutativity then we have to check $A * B = B * A $. So what is it for identity?
