Dihedral subgroups of $S_4$ 
Prove that in $S_4$ there are $3$ groups that are isomorphic to $D_4$. 

I know that the $2$-sylows of $S_4$ should be subgroups of order $8$, but to prove it is a bit tricky for me
Any help would be appreciated, thanks. 
 A: $\require{AMScd}$Hint: View $D_4$ as the symmetries of a square. Draw a square and label the corners. You will, for example, have the element $(1234)$ that rotates the square:
$$\begin{CD}
1     @>>>  2\\
@AAA        @VVV\\
4     @<<<  3
\end{CD}
$$
So you get the subgroup with the elements $(1), (12)(34), (14)(23), (1234), (1432), (13)$ and two more elements. Can you find them?
After you have found the two elements, try to see if you can find other subgroups that basically have the same elements. You just relabel the cornors of the square. The elements will be of the same type. So you might have a group that has the element $(12)$.
A: We can see that any Sylow $2$-subgroup is isomorphic to $D_4$ by considering the group of symmetries of the square. By the Sylow theorems the number of such subgroups is congruent to $1$ mod $2$ and divides $24/8=3$, so there is either only one such subgroup or there are $3$. If there were only one, then this subgroup would contain all elements of order $2$ (because every subgroup of order dividing $8$ is contained in a subgroup of order $8$, and the elements of order $2$ generate subgroups of order $2$). However, the elements $(12),(23),(34)$ are of order $2$ and they generate the whole group, so they cannot all be contained in the same subgroup of order $8$. Thus there are $3$ subgroups isomorphic to $D_4$.
