Expert's answer

Given that,GG is finite group and HH is subgroup of GG

Claim: If HGH\triangleleft G then, for any aGa\in G ,aH=HaaH=Ha

Proof:

Suppose, HG    aHa1HH\triangleleft G\implies aHa^{-1}\subset H

Note that H=a(a1H(a1)1)a1=a(a1Ha)a1aHa1H=a(a^{-1}H(a^{-1})^{-1})a^{-1}=a(a^{-1}Ha)a^{-1}\subset aHa^{-1}

Hence, from above two equation aHa1=H    aH=HaaHa^{-1}=H\implies aH=Ha
