Solution Preview
For any m, D_m can be represented by rotations in complex plane:
D_m(k) = { e^{2 pi i k / m}, k = 0, 1, ...., m-1 }
and Z_2 can be represented by D_2:
Z_2 = { e^0, e^{pi i} }
If m is odd, the direct product D_m x Z_2 can be represented 1-to-1 by rotations which are the usual products of ...
