If $g:mathbb{Z_{10}}rightarrow U_{20}$ is a group homomorphism, then the order of $g(1)$ is either $1$ or...

Why is that if $g:mathbb{Z_{10}}$$rightarrow$$U_{20}$ is a group homomorphism, then the order of $g(1)$ is either $1$ or $2$?



Also, $g$ is a function, $mathbb{Z_{10}}$ is the group of integers modulo $10$, and $U_{20}$ is the group of units modulo $20$.

Hint: $operatorname{Im}(g)$ is a subgroup of $U_{20}$ and $1$ (as an element of $Bbb Z_{10}$) generates $Bbb Z_{10}$.

    In fact, $U(20)=mathbb Z_4oplus mathbb Z_2$. So $operatorname{Im}g=langle g(1)rangle $ has order dividing $10$ and $4$.
