P(B ∩ C) = (Multiple of 42)
50 Answer (1)
1 Sol. Set A = {1, 2, 3, 4}
P(A ∩ C) = (Multiple of 28)
50 For reflexive relation
We need to have (1, 1), (2, 2), (3, 3), (4, 4).
P(A ∩ B ∩ C) = 0 (Multiple of 84)
For symmetric,
P(A ∪ B ∪ C) = P(A) + P(B) + P(C) – P(A ∩ B) –
(1, 3) ∈A
P(B ∩ C) – P(A ∩ C) + P(A ∩ B ∩ C)
So (3, 1) should be added
12 8 7 4 1

So (2, 1) should be added

50 (3, 1), (1, 2), (2, 1)}
π Now (3, 1) ∈A

(1, 2) ∈A
2. ∫ 1 − sin 2 x dx is
π So (3, 2) should be added (for transitive)
6
Then (2, 3) should be added (for symmetric)
(1) 2 − 3 +1 (2) 2 2 − 3 − 1 So set becomes
