(iii) {{3, 4}} ⊂ A
(iv) 1 ∈ A
(v) 1⊂ A
(vi) {1, 2, 5} ⊂ A
(vii) {1, 2, 5} ∈ A
(viii) {1, 2, 3} ⊂ A

(x) Φ ⊂ A
(xi) {Φ} ⊂ A
Solution:
It is given that A= {1, 2, {3, 4}, 5}
(i) {3, 4} ⊂ A is incorrect
Here 3 ∈ {3, 4}; where, 3∉A.
(ii) {3, 4} ∈A is correct
{3, 4} is an element of A.
(iii) {{3, 4}} ⊂ A is correct
{3, 4} ∈ {{3, 4}} and {3, 4} ∈ A.
(iv) 1∈A is correct
1 is an element of A.
(v) 1⊂ A is incorrect
An element of a set can never be a subset of itself.
(vi) {1, 2, 5} ⊂ A is correct
Each element of {1, 2, 5} is also an element of A.
(vii) {1, 2, 5} ∈ A is incorrect
{1, 2, 5} is not an element of A.
(viii) {1, 2, 3} ⊂ A is incorrect
3 ∈ {1, 2, 3}; where, 3 ∉ A.
(ix) Φ ∈ A is incorrect
Φ is not an element of A.
(x) Φ ⊂ A is correct
Φ is a subset of every set.
(xi) {Φ} ⊂ A is incorrect
Φ∈ {Φ}; where, Φ ∈ A.
Q4. Write down all the subsets of the following sets:
(i) {a}
(ii) {a, b}
(iii) {1, 2, 3}
(iv) Φ
Solution:
(i) Subsets of {a} are
Φ and {a}.
(ii) Subsets of {a, b} are
Φ, {a}, {b}, and {a, b}.
(iii) Subsets of {1, 2, 3} are
Φ, {1}, {2}, {3}, {1, 2}, {2, 3}, {1, 3}, and {1, 2, 3}.
(iv) Only subset of Φ is Φ.
Q5. How many elements has P (A), if A = Φ?
Solution:
If A is a set with m elements
n (A) = m then n [P (A)] = 2m
If A = Φ we get n (A) = 0
n [P(A)] = 20 = 1
Therefore, P (A) has one element.
Q6. Write the following as intervals:
(i) {x: x ∈ R, –4 < x ≤ 6}
(ii) {x: x ∈ R, –12 < x < –10}
(iii) {x: x ∈ R, 0 ≤ x < 7}
(iv) {x: x ∈ R, 3 ≤ x ≤ 4}
Solution:
(i) {x: x ∈ R, –4 < x ≤ 6} = (–4, 6]
(ii) {x: x ∈ R, –12 < x < –10} = (–12, –10)
(iii) {x: x ∈ R, 0 ≤ x < 7} = [0, 7)
(iv) {x: x ∈ R, 3 ≤ x ≤ 4} = [3, 4]
Q7. Write the following intervals in set-builder form:
(i) (–3, 0)
(ii) [6, 12]
(iii) (6, 12]
(iv) [–23, 5)
Solution:
(i) (–3, 0) = {x: x ∈ R, –3 < x < 0}
(ii) [6, 12] = {x: x ∈ R, 6 ≤ x ≤ 12}
(iii) (6, 12] ={x: x ∈ R, 6 < x ≤ 12}
(iv) [–23, 5) = {x: x ∈ R, –23 ≤ x < 5}
Q8. What universal set (s) would you propose for each of the following:
(i) The set of right triangles
(ii) The set of isosceles triangles
Solution:
(i) Among the set of right triangles, the universal set is the set of triangles or the set of polygons.
(ii) Among the set of isosceles triangles, the universal set is the set of triangles or the set of polygons or the set of two-dimensional figures.
Q9. Given the sets A = {1, 3, 5}, B = {2, 4, 6} and C = {0, 2, 4, 6, 8}, which of the following may be considered as universals set (s) for all the three sets A, B and C
(i) {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}
(ii) Φ
(iii) {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10}
(iv) {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8}
Solution:
(i) We know that A ⊂ {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}
B ⊂ {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}
So C ⊄ {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}
Hence, the set {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6} cannot be the universal set for the sets A, B, and C.
(ii) A ⊄ Φ, B ⊄ Φ, C ⊄ Φ
Hence, Φ cannot be the universal set for the sets A, B, and C.
(iii) A ⊂ {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10}
B ⊂ {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10}
C ⊂ {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10}
Hence, the set {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10} is the universal set for the sets A, B, and C.
(iv) A ⊂ {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8}
B ⊂ {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8}
So C ⊄ {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8}
Hence, the set {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8} cannot be the universal set for the sets A, B, and C.
