[Groups and Symmetries] How do you solve question 2 (without using previous answers)? Thanks

Question 1. Show that in S7, the equation r²
(1234) has no solutions.
Question 2. Let n be an even positive integer. Prove that An has an element of order greater than n if and only if
n > 8.
Question 3. Notice that the set {1,–1} is a group under multiplication. Fix n > 2. Define p : Sn →
{1, –1} via
if o is an even permutation
p(0) =
1
if o is an odd permutation
Prove that y is a group homomorphism. Also compute ker y.
Question 4. Let G be a group. Define f :G → G via g Hg¬1.
(a) Prove that f is a bijection.
(b) Prove that f is a homomorphism if and only if G is Abelain.
Question 5. Suppose G is an Abelain group, |G| = n < ∞, and |g| #2 for all g e G. Prove that the map ø : G → G
given by x + x² is an isomorphism.
