Example of Exercise 1.1

Example 1 :
If A = { 1 , 2 } , find all the subsets of A .

Solution :
Following are all the subsets of A
∅ , {1} , {2} , { 1,2 }

So there are four subsets of a set which contains two elements .

Example 2 :Let A = { a , b , c } , Find all the subsets of A.

Solution :
Following are all the subsets of A .
∅ , {a} , {b} , {c} , { a , b } , { a , c } , { b , c } , { a , b , c }

So there are eight subsets of a set which contains three elements .

Exercise 1.1
1. Use both Tabular and Set builder forms to specify the following sets :
a. The set of positive integers greater than 2 and less than 6 .
b. The set of positive integers less than 20 that are divisible by 5 .
c. The set of natural numbers between 4 and 12 .
d. A set of first six positive prime numbers .

2. Which of the following sets are the Null set ?


a. A = {x l x is a letter before ‘ a ‘ in the English alphabets .
b. B = {x l x + 5 = 5 }
c. C = {x l x is less than 7 and greater than 8 .
d. D = {x l is past president of Pakistan who was a woman .

e. The set of lines passing through a point .
f. The set of lines passing through two given points .

4. Given S = { x l x is a positive integer } , find proper subsets of the S that


are also subsets of A , where A = {x l x is an integer less than 3 }.

5. If A = { a , b , c , d } find
a. Proper subsets of A .
b. An improper subset of A ,
c. Two sets B and C that are subsets of A such that B ⊂C .
d. Two sets B and C that are subsets of A such that B ⊆C .

6. Find all the subsets f A = { a , b , c , d } , hence or other wise , Find l P(A) l.

7. Is there any set which has no proper subset? If yes specify the set .

8. Find the set which has only one proper subset .

9. If n (A) = 10 then n {P(A)} = -----------.

10. Use the set builder form to give an example of a null set .

11. Consider the set A { 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 } Find a proper subset B of A , then find


proper subset C of B , then find a proper subset D of C .

12. Which of the following are equivalent sets ?

a. A={a,b,c} ,B={1,2,3}
