Extension of a cyclic group by an abelian group
$begingroup$
What is meant by "an extension of a cyclic group of prime order $p$ by an abelian group of odd order relatively prime to $p$"?
Can it be a semidirect product of a cyclic group of order $p^2$ by an abelian group of order $q$, where $p,q$ are distinct primes greater than 2?

No it couldn't'; its order must be a multiple of $p$ but not of $p^2$.

The order of the extension is the product of those of the normal subgroup ($p$) and the quotient group (relative to $p$) so it cannot be a multiple of $p^2$.

The order of the extension is the product of those of the normal subgroup ($p$) and the quotient group (relative to $p$) so it cannot be a multiple of $p^2$.
