Question 1:

Let A {2,4,6} , B {2,4,8,9}

(i)
(ii)

Is A a subset of B ?
If not change the set B suitably so that set A becomes subset of B .

Question 2:
Suppose A B then which of the following is true: A C B C or B C A C ?
Question 3a:
Use Venn diagram to prove the following De Morgans law A B AC B C .
C

Question 3b:
Can you prove the same De Morgans law (as in Q 3a) using the following sets?

A {a, b, c, d , e, f }; B {c, d , e}
The universal set S is the set of all English alphabets.
Question 4:
Verify that A B C A B A C using the following sets:

A {a, b, c, d , e, f }; B {c, d , e}; C {a, e}

The universal set S is the set of all English alphabets.
Question 5:
The number of subsets that can be formed from a given set is 2 n ( n is the number of elements in the
given set). Verify this for the given set A {3,4,5,6} ! Please list out all the subsets.
