Find Generators and relations analogous to (2.13) for the Klein four group.?
(2.13) i^4=1, i^2=j^2, ji=(i^3)j.
(a) Find Generators and relations analogous to (2.13) for the Klein four group.

(b) Find all subgroups of the Klein four group.

Please show steps! Thank you.

Well, what IS the Klein 4 group? It has only 4 members. You ought to be able to write out the operation table and get this immediately.
 
There are two things I don't understand about this problem. First, when finding the nth root of a number, there should in theory be n solutions. However, the formula produces n+1 roots. Here is how. The first root is simply ##\left(r\right)^{\left(\frac{1}{n}\right)}##. Then you multiply this first root by n additional expressions given by the formula, as you go through k=0,1,...n-1. So you end up with n+1 roots, which cannot be correct. Let me illustrate what I mean. For this...
