Yes I know the geometric interpretation. Is it the same for abstract algebra?

Can someone give me a short description about dihedrals? for example what would be the elements of D10? or D4?

Yes i know that. thanks a lot for the explanation :) Just one last thing.. what's 'functional notation'? is it the disjoint cycles notation? so basically my answer would be the same as the dijoint cycle notation for this permutation? i missed soo many lectures (im studying comp science) and...

So is the question infact asking me to run the permutation through 100 cycles?

I might be a bit thick in this but i just can't figure out how to answers this exam question: Calculate p to the power of 100, writing your answer in functional notation p is the permutation(n=10): (3,5,7,6,2,9,1,10,8,4). It should say 1-10 on the top but i don't know how to draw matrices...
