Solution:
(a) Solution:
Here we have, (a)
A = {y : y is even natural numbers and Y2 ≤144} Here Q = {x : x is prime number and x < 8}
= {2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12}, which is A in tabular form. ={2, 3, 5, 7}
(b)
(b) We have,
From (a) above, we have, A = {2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12} P = {x : x is even natural number and 2 ≤x < 7}
Given that, = {2,4,6}
B = {x: x is the multiple of 4 and x ≤ 12} Q = {2, 3, 5, 7}, from (a) above,
= {4, 8, 12} R = {1, 3, 7}, (given)
∴ (A ∩ B) = {4, 8, 12} P ∪ Q = {2, 4, 6} ∪ {2, 3, 5, 7}
So, sub-sets of (A ∩B) are {4}, {8}, {12}, {4, 8}, ={2,3,4,5,6,7}
{4, 12}, {8, 12}, {4, 8, 12}, ∅ And Q – R = { 2, 3, 5, 7} - { 1, 3, 7}
= { 2, 5}
(c) So, (P ∪ Q) ∩ (Q - R) = {2, 5}
Given that, (c)
U = {x : x is natural number and 2 ≤x ≤13} We have,
= {2, 3, 4, 5,6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13} U = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8}, (given)
From (a) and (b) above we have, From (b) above, we get
A = {2,4, 6, 8, 10, 12} and P = { 2, 4, 6} and R= {1, 3, 7}
B = {4,8, 12} ∴ P ∩ R = { 2, 4, 6} ∩ {1, 3, 7} = 𝜙
∴ (A ∪ B) = {2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12} ∪ {4, 8, 12} ∴ ( P ∩ R )' = U – ( P ∩ R )
= {2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12} = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5,6, 7, 8} – {𝜙}
∴ (A ∪ B)' = U – ( A ∪ B) = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5,6, 7, 8} ………….(i)
={2, 3, 4, 5, 6,7,8, 9,10,11,12,13}–{2,4, 6, 8, 10,12} Again, P' = U – P
= {3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13}……………………… (i) = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5,6, 7, 8} – {2, 4, 6}
A' = U – A = {1, 3, 5, 7, 8}
={2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13} –{2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12} R' = U – R
= {3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13} = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8} – {1, 3, 7}
B' = U – B = {2, 4, 5, 6, 8}
={2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10,11,12,13} – {4,8 ,12} ∴ P' ∪ R' = {1, 3, 5, 7, 8} ∪ { 2, 4, 5, 6, 8}
=[2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10, 11, 13} = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8} …..…… (ii)
∴ ( A' ∩ B') = {3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13} ∩ {2, 3, 5, 6, 7, Now from (i) and (ii), (P ∩ R)' = P' ∪ R' (Showed)
9, 10, 11, 13}
= {3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13} ……………(ii)
From (i) and (ii), (A ∪ B)' = A' ∩ B' is justified.

Universal set U = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8} (a)
A = {x : x is odd number and 3 < x < 9}, Here we have,
B = {3, 4, 5} U = {x : x is a natural number and x < 8}

subsets. A = {x : x is a odd natural number and x < 6}
= { 1, 3, 5, 7}
Solution: B = {x : x is an even number and x ≤ 6}
(a) = {2, 4, 6}
Here given that, C = {2, 5}
U = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8} and ∴ (A ∪ B) = {1, 3, 5, 7} ∪ {2, 4, 6}
A = {x : x is odd number and 3 < x < 9} ={1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7}
= {5, 7), which is the tabular form. And B ∪ C) = {2, 4, 6} ∪ {2, 5} = {2, 4, 5, 6}
∴ (A∪B)∩(B∪C) = {1,2,3,4,5,6,7} ∩{2,4,5, 6}
(b) ={2, 4, 5, 6}.
Here we have, So, (A ∪ B) ∩ (B ∪ C) = {2, 4, 5, 6}.
U = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8} and
A = {5, 7), from (a) above (c)
B = {3, 4, 5} Here (A ∩ C) = {1, 3, 5, 7} ∩ {2, 5} = {5}
∴ A ∪ B = {5, 7} ∪ {3, 4, 5} ={3, 4, 5, 7} From (a) above,
∴ ( A ∪ B)' = U – ( A ∪ B) U ={1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6,7}
={1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6,7,8} – {3,4,5,7} ∴ ( A ∩ C )' = U – ( A ∩ C)
= {1, 2, 6, 8}……………….(1) = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6,7} – { 5 }
A' = U – A ={1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8} – {5, 7} = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7}………….(1)
= {1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8} Again,
B' = U – B ={1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8} – {3, 4, 5} A' = U – A = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7} – {1, 3, 5, 7}
= {1, 2, 6, 7, 8} ={ 2, 4, 6}
∴ A' ∩ B' = {1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8} ∩ {1, 2, 6, 7, 8} C' = U – C = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7} – {2, 5}
= {1, 2, 6, 8}……………….(2) = {1, 3, 4, 6, 7}
Now from (1) and (2) above, we get,
(A ∪ B)' = A' ∩ B'. (Proved) ∴ A' ∪ C' = { 2, 4, 6} ∪{1, 3, 4, 6, 7}
={1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7}
(c)
We have, A = {5, 7}, from (a) above, Now from (1) and (2) above, (A ∩ C)' = A' ∪ C'.
C = {x : 4 < x < 7} given (Showed)
= {5, 6}
∴ A ∪ C = {5, 7} ∪ {5, 6} = {5, 6, 7} Question no : 05
Now the sub-sets of (A ∪ C) are as under : U = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8},
{5},{6},{7},{5,6), {5,7}, {6, 7), {5, 6, 7} and {} A = {1, 2, 3, 5}
From the above, we have 8 sub-sets of A ∪ C. B = {x : x is a natural number and 1 < x < 8}
C = {x : x is a even number and 2 ≤ x ≤ 6}

method of U.
 (b) {4},{5},{6},{4,5}, {4,6}, {5,6), {4, 5, 6} and 𝜙
We have, Again,
A = {1, 2, 3, 5} (A ∪ B) ∩ C
B = {x : x is a natural number and 1 < x < 8} = { { 2, 3, 5, 7} ∪ {4, 5, 6} } ∩ {1, 3,4, 5}
= {2, 3, 4, 5, 6,7} = {2, 3, 4, 5, 6,7} ∩ {1, 3, 4, 5}
C = {x : x is an even number and 2 ≤x ≤6} = {3, 4, 5}
= { 2, 4 , 6} ∴ ( A ∪ B ) ∩ C ={ 3, 4, 5}.
∴ A∪ B= {1, 2, 3, 5} ∪ {2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7}
= {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6,7}……………….(i) (c)
A – B = { 1, 2, 3, 5} – { 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7} = { 1 } Here,
B – A = { 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7} – { 1, 2, 3, 5} = {4, 6, 7} ( A ∩ B ) = { 2, 3, 5, 7} ∩ {4, 5, 6} = { 5 }
A ∩ B = {1, 2, 3, 5} ∩ {2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7} = { 2, 3, 5} ∴ ( A ∩ B)' = U – ( A ∩ B )
∴(A–B)∪(B–A)∪(A∩B) = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8} – { 5 }
= { 1 } ∪ {4, 6, 7} ∪ {2, 3, 5} = {1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8}
= {1, 2, 3, 4, 5,6, 7}……………………….(ii) Again, A' = U – A
Now from (i) and (ii), it is evident that, = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5,6, 7, 8} – { 2, 3, 5, 7}
A ∪ B =( A – B ) ∪ ( B – A ) ∪ ( A ∩ B). (Showed) ={1, 4, 6, 8}
B' = U – B
(c) ={1, 2, 3, 4, 5,6, 7, 8} –{ 4, 5, 6}
Here (B ∪ C) = {2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7} ∪ {2, 4, 6} ={1, 2, 3, 7, 8}
= { 2, 3, 4, 5, 6,7} ∴ A' ∪ B' = {1, 4, 6, 8} ∪ {1, 2, 3, 7, 8}
∴ (B ∪ C)' = U – (B ∪ C) = {1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8}
= {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8} – {2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7} ∴ (A ∩ B)' = A' ∪ B'. (Proved)

New from (1) and (2) above, we get, (c) Determine (A' ∪ B') ∩ C'.
(B ∪ C)' = B' ∩ C'. (Proved)
Solution:
(a)
Question no : 06 Here we have set A = {x : x ∈ N and x2 – 3x + 2 = 0}
U = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8}, Now x2 – 3x + 2 = 0
A = {x: x prime number and x < 10}, or, x2 – 2x – x + 2 = 0
B = {4, 5, 6}, C = {1, 3, 4, 6}. or, x(x – 2) – 1 (x– 2) = 0
(a) Express the set A in tabular form. or, (x – 2) (x – 1) = 0
(b) Find the subsets of the set B and determine or, x = 2, 1
(A ∪ B) ∩C. ∴ In tabular form, A = {2, 1}
(c) Prove that, (A ∩B)' = A' ∪ B'. (b)
We have,
Solution: A = {1, 2}, from (a)
(a) B ={2, 4, 6) and
Here given that C ={1, 3, 5}
A = {x : x, prime number and x ≤10} ∴A∪ B = {1, 2) ∪ {2, 4, 6} = {1, 2, 4, 6}
Now expressing in tabular form, we have, ∴ (A ∪ B) ∩ C = {1, 2, 4, 6} ∩ {1, 3, 5}
A = { 2, 3, 5, 7} = {1}……………………(i)
Again, ( A ∩ C ) = {1, 2} ∩ {1, 3, 5} = { 1 }
(b) and ( B ∩ C ) = { 2, 4, 6} ∩ {1, 3, 5} = 𝜙
Here we have, ∴ ( A ∩ C) ∪ ( B ∩ C) = { 1} ∪ 𝜙 = { 1 }………(ii)
B = {4, 5, 6} So, from (i) and (ii) (A∪B) ∩ C = (A∩C) ∪ (B ∩ C)

Here A' = U – A ={1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6} – {1, 2} In a school 65% students passed in Bangla, 55%
={ 3, 4, 5, 6} students passed in English and 40% students
B' = U – B ={1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6} – {2, 4, 6} passed in both subjects.

C' = U – C = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6} – {1, 3, 5} with short explanation.
={2, 4, 6} (b) Find out the number of students who failed in
∴ ( A' ∪ B') ={ 3, 4, 5, 6} ∪ {1, 3, 5} both subjects.
={1, 3, 4, 5, 6} (c) Find out the intersection set of the sets of factors
∴ (A' ∪ B') ∩ C' = {1, 3, 4, 5, 6}∩{2,4, 6} of number of those students who passed only in
= {4, 6} Bangla and only in English.
So, (A' ∪ B') ∩ C' = {4, 6}
Solution:
Question no : 08 (a)
A = {x : x is even number and 2 < x < 16}, A Venn diagram covering the information of the
B = {x: x is factor of 12} and stem is drawn below :
C = {x : x is a prime factor of 15}
(a) Express the set C in tabular method.
(b) Determine A ∩ B and A ∪ B.
(c) Show that, A ∩ (B ∪ C) = (A ∩ B) ∪ (A ∩ C).

Solution:
(a)
Here set C = {x : x is a prime factor of 15}
={ 3, 5}
So, in tabular method, C = {3,5}. (b)
(b) Passed in Bangla = 65%
Here, Passed in English = 55%
A = {x : x is an even number and 2 < x < 16} Passed in both Bangla and English = 40%
= {4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14} Passed in Bangla only = (65 – 40)% or, 25%
B = {x : x is factor of 12} And passed in English only = (55 – 40)% or, 15%
= {1, 2, 3; 4, 6, 12} ∴Total pass = (40 + 25 + 15)= 80%
A ∩ B = {4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14} ∩ {1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12} ∴Total fail = (100 – 80%) = 20%
= {4, 6, 12} Therefore 20% students failed in both the subjects.
A ∪ B = {4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14} ∪ {1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12}
= {1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14} (c)
So, A ∩ B = {4, 6, 12} and From (b) we get,
A ∪ B= {1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14} 25% students passed in Bengali only and
15% students passed in English only
(c) Here 25 = 1 × 25
Here B ∪ C = {1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12} ∪ {3, 5} =5×5
= {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 12} Again, 15 = 1 × 15
∴ A ∩ ( B ∪ C) =3×5
= {4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14} ∩ {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 12} Let the set with the factors of 25, A = {1, 5, 5, 25}
= {4, 6, 12} ………………..(i) and the set with the factors of 15, B = {1, 3, 5, 15}
Again, (A ∩ B) ∴ A ∩ B = {1, 5, 5, 25} ∩ {1, 3, 5, 15}
= {4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14} ∩ {1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12} = { 1, 5}
So, the required intersection set is {1, 5}
= {4, 6, 12}
And, (A ∩ C) = {4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14} ∩ {3, 5} = { }
∴ (A ∩ B) ∪ (A ∩ C) = {4, 6,12} ∪ { }
={4, 6, 12} …….(ii)
So, from (i) and (ii), we have,
A ∩ (B ∪ C) = (A ∩ B) ∪ (A ∩ C) (Showed)

Here we have, (1) Tabular Method and
U = {x ∈ N : x ≤ 7} = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6,7} (2) Set builder Method.
So, the set U in tabular method is {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7}. (b)
Here we have,
(b) P={1, 8, 15} and Q= {5, 15, 25}
Here A = {x e N : x < 7 and x is odd number} P ∪ Q = {1, 8, 15} ∪ 5, 15, 25)
={1, 3, 5} = {1, 5, 8, 15, 25}
B = {x ∈ N : x < 7 and x is even number} Again, P / Q = {1, 8, 15} - {5, 15, 25} ={1, 8}
={ 2, 4, 6} ∴P ∪ Q = {1, 5,8, 15, 25) and. P/Q ={1, 8}
C = {x ∈ n : x ≤ 5 and x is prime number}
={ 2, 3, 5} (c)
∴ B ∪ C ={ 2, 4, 6} ∪ { 2, 3, 5} ={2, 3, 4, 5, 6} We have, P= {1, 8, 15), Q = {5, 15, 25} and
∴ A ∩ ( B ∪ C ) = {1, 3, 5} ∩ {2, 3, 4, 5, 6} = {3,5} U = {1, 5, 8, 15, 25}
So, A ∩ (B U C) = {3, 5}
Now P ∩ Q = {1, 8, 15} ∩ {5, 15, 25} = {15}
(c) ∴ ( P ∩ Q)' = U – ( P ∩ Q )
From (b) we have, = {1, 5, 8, 15, 25} – {15}
A = {1, 3, 5}, B = { 2, 4, 6} and C = {2, 3, 5} = {1, 5, 8, 25} …………….(i)
From (a), U = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7} Again, P' = U – P
∴ A ∪ C ={1, 3, 5} ∪ { 2, 3, 5} = {1, 2, 3, 5} ={1, 5, 8, 15, 25} – {1, 8, 15}
∴ ( A ∪ C )' = U – ( A ∪ C) = {5, 25}
= {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6,7} - {1, 2, 3, 5} Q' = U – Q
= {4, 6, 7}…………………….(i) ={1, 5, 8, 15, 25} – {5, 15, 25}
Again, A' = U – A = {1, 8}
= {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7} – {1, 3, 5} ∴ P' ∪ Q' = {1, 5, 8, 25} …………………….(ii)
= { 2, 4, 6, 7} Now from (i) and (ii) we get,
C' = U – C (P ∩Q)' = P' ∪ Q', (Showed)
= {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7} – {2, 3, 5}
= { 1, 4, 6, 7}
∴ A’ ∩ C’ ={ 2, 4, 6, 7} ∩ { 1, 4, 6, 7}
Question no : 12
Universal set, U = {x :x -is natural number and x ≤6}.
= { 4, 6, 7}……………………….(ii)
The subsets of U are :
Now from (i) and (ii) we get,
A = {x : x is odd number}
(A U C)' = A' ∩ C'
B = {x : x is even number}
So, (A U C)' = A' ∩ C' is correct and justified.
(a) Express the set U is tabular method.
(b) Justify the correctness of the following
relation — (A ∪ B)' = A' ∩ B'.
(c) Write the subsets of the set formed with
the prime numbers of the universal set.
Solution:
(a)
Here U = {x : x is natural numbers and x ≤ 6}
= {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}
∴In Tabular Method, U is expressed as :
={1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}

(b)
Here A = {x : x is odd number) = {1, 3, 5}
B = {x : x is even number} = {2, 4, 6}
( A ∪ B ) = {1, 3, 5} ∪ { 2, 4, 6}
= {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}
∴ ( A ∪ B )' = U – ( A ∪ B )
={1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6} – {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}
= ∅……………………..(i)
Again, A' = U – A
={1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6} –{1, 3, 5}
={ 2, 4, 6}
B' = U – B
={1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6} – {2, 4, 6}
={1, 3, 5}
∴ A' ∩ B' = {2, 4, 6} ∩ {1, 3, 5}
= ∅……………………..(ii)
Now from (i) and (ii) We have,
(A ∪ B)' = A' ∩ B' and it is justified to be correct.

(c)
Here universal set, U = {l, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}
∴ the set formed with the prime numbers of the
universal set U ={2, 3, 5}…………(i)
Now sub-set of the set mentioned in (i) are :
{2},{3},{5},{2, 3), {3, 5}, {2, 5), {2, 3, 5} and {}

∴ The desired sub-sets are : {2},{3},{5}, {2, 3}, {3,

5}, {2, 5}, {2, 3, 5} and {}
