State and prove the orbit-stabilizer theorem.
Let be the group of all symmetries of a regular octahedron, including both orientation-preserving and orientation-reversing symmetries. How many symmetries are there in the group ? Let be the set of straight lines that join a vertex of the octahedron to the opposite vertex. How many lines are there in the set ? Identify the stabilizer in of one of the lines in .
