(x 1, y 1) + (x 2, y 2) = (x 1 + x 2, y 1 + y 2). Let R + be the group of positive real numbers under multiplication. Then the direct product R + × R + is the group of all vectors in the first quadrant under the operation of component-wise multiplication (x 1, y 1) × (x 2, y 2) = (x 1 × x 2, y 1 × y 2). Let G and H be cyclic groups with two ...
