(                    )




 

1)  

  If n(X) = m,  n(Y) =n and n(X∩Y) = p then n(XUY) =





Answer: 2


SOLUTION 1 :

Hint: [n(XUY) = n(X)+n(Y) – n[(X∩Y) = m+n-p)]

ans = m+n-p



2)  

 If A = { 3,4,5,6} and B = { 1,2,5,6}, then AUB =





Answer: 2


SOLUTION 1 :

Ans = {1,2,3,4,5,6}



3)  

  If U = {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8, 9,10} and  A= {2,5,6,9,10} A' is





Answer: 4


SOLUTION 1 :
 Hint: [ A" = U – A { 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10} – {2,5,6,9,10} ={ 1,3,4,7,8}]
 
ans = {1,3,4,7,8}
 


4)  

 If  X = {a{ b, c }d}, Which of the following is subset of X





Answer: 4

 

SOLUTION 1 :

{ c,d}                   



5)  
 If A is a proper subset of B, then A∩B =





Answer: 3


SOLUTION 1 :
  Hint: [ A∩B = set of all elements common to both A and B] A
 
Ans = A
 


6)  
If A = {a, b, c},  B = {e,f,g}  then A∩B =
 




Answer: 1


SOLUTION 1 :

Hint: [ A∩B ={ a,b,c,} ∩ {e,f,g} = { } = ɸ]

Ans = É¸



7)  

  If A is a proper subset of B, then AUB = 

 




Answer: 3


SOLUTION 1 :
 Hint: [ AUB = set of all elements common to both A and B]
 
Ans = B
 
 


8)

Answer: 3


SOLUTION 1 :
Hint: [ The subset of empty  set Ø= { { } } . The  empty set does not  has a proper  subset
 


9)  
 The number of subset of the  set {10,11,12} is
 




Answer: 4

 



SOLUTION 1 :
  Hint: [ Number of subsets =  2m = 23 = 8    (Here there are three elements   m = 3)]
 
Ans = 8
