# Group Theory

Produced by the BBC for the British Open University

Extracts the fundamental properties of two situations to reveal the basic axioms of a group. The first situation studies the rotations, flips, and their combinations needed to sort envelopes in an automated post office, and leads to a group table. The second situation studies the symmetrics of a triangle with corresponding rotations and flips, and also leads to a group table. J. Jaworski. From the Mathematics: A Foundation series
