Find the identity element in set Q^+ of ...

Find the identity element in set `Q^+` of all positive rational numbers for the operation * defined by `a*b=(a b)/2` for all `a , b in Q^+dot`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

*defined by `a`*`b=(a b)/2`
Then let `e` be the identity element of `Q+`
`a`*`e=e`*`a=a`for all `a in Q^+`
`a`*`e=a`
`(ae)/2=a`
`e=2`
