Definition (Cosets $Ha$ and $aH$)
Let $G$ be a group and let $H$ be a subgroup of $G$. Let $a\in G$. We say that the set product $aH$ is a left coset of $H$ and the set product $Ha$ is a right coset of $H$. Remember that when the group is Abelian and we use the symbol $+$ to represent the group operation, then we write $a+H$ for the left cosets and $H+a$ for the right cosets.
