1. Decide, among the following sets, which sets are subsets of one and another:
A={x : x∈R and x satisfy x2–8x+12=0}, B={2,4,6}, C={2,4,6,8, . . . }, D={6}.
(iii) If A⊂B and B⊂C, then A⊂C
3. Let A, B, and C be the sets such that A∪B=A∪C and A∩B=A∩C. Show that B=C.
4. Show that the following four conditions are equivalent:
5. Show that if AB, then C–B ⊂ C–A.
6. Show that for any sets A and B,
A=(A∩B)∪(A–B) and A∪(B–A)=(A∪B).
7. Using properties of sets, show that
8. Show that A∩B=A∩C need not imply B=C.
9. Let A and B be sets. If A∩X=B∩X=(phi) and A∪X=B∪X for some set X, show that A=B.
(Hints A=A∩(A∪X), B=B∩(B∪X) and use Distributive law)
10. Find sets A, B and C such that A∩B, B∩C and A∩C are non-empty sets and A∩B∩C=(phi).
