Any normal subgroup of order 2 is contained in the center of the group.
If \(N\) is a normal subgroup of a group \(G\) and \(|N|=2\), then \(N=\left\{e,a\right \}\) where \(a^2=e\).
For all \(g\in G\) we have \(gag^{-1}\in N\).
Can \(gag^{-1}=e\)? No. Since that would imply \(a=e\).
Therefore, for all \(g\in G\), \(gag^{-1}=a\).
Which proves that a is in the center of the group.
