Transcribed Image Text:Let \( G_1 \) and \( G_2 \) be groups, and let \( G = G_1 \times G_2 \). Write \( e_1 \) and \( e_2 \) for the identities of \( G_1 \) and \( G_2 \) respectively. Let \( H = \{(g_1, e_2) \mid g_1 \in G_1\} \) and \( K = \{(e_1, g_2) \mid g_2 \in G_2\} \).
(a) Prove that \( H \) and \( K \) are subgroups of \( G \).
(b) Prove that \( HK = KH = G \).
(c) Prove that \( H \cap K = \{(e_1, e_2)\} \).
