Computations in symmetric groups

Let $S_{n}$ denote the symmetric group on $n$ letters.

Is the element $(1 2 3 4) (2 5 3 4 6) (1 5 3 2 4 7) \in S_{7}$ even or odd? Indicate your reasoning.
Find the order of $(1 3 4) (2 4 3) (1 3 4) \in S_{4}$ . Show all work.
Write $(1 5 2 3) (2 1 3 4) (1 5 2 3)^{- 1} \in S_{5}$ in disjoint cycle form. Show all work.
