Let H be a subgroup of a group G. Let ∼H and ρH be the equivalence relation in G introduced in class given by x∼H y⇐⇒x−1y∈H, xρHy⇐⇒xy−1 ∈H. The equivalence classes are the left and the right cosets of H in G, respectively. Prove that the functionφ: G/∼H →G/ρH given by φ(xH) = Hx−1 is well-defined and bijective. This proves that the number of left and right cosets are equal.
