Question 8:
Which of the following pairs of sets are disjoint
(i) {1, 2, 3, 4} and {x: x is a natural number and 4 ≤ x ≤ 6}
(ii) {a, e, i, o, u}and {c, d, e, f}
(iii) {x: x is an even integer} and {x: x is an odd integer}
(i) {1, 2, 3, 4}
{x: x is a natural number and 4 ≤ x ≤ 6} = {4, 5, 6}
Now, {1, 2, 3, 4} ∩ {4, 5, 6} = {4}
Therefore, this pair of sets is not disjoint.
(ii) {a, e, i, o, u} ∩ (c, d, e, f} = {e}
Therefore, {a, e, i, o, u} and (c, d, e, f} are not disjoint.
(iii) {x: x is an even integer} ∩ {x: x is an odd integer} = Φ
Therefore, this pair of sets is disjoint.
