1) Find the power set of the Set {a, b, c ,d}
the power set of the set {a, b, c, d}:
P({a, b, c, d}) = { {}, {a}, {b}, {c}, {d}, {a, b}, {a, c}, {a, d}, {b, c}, {b, d}, {c, d}, {a,
b, c}, {a, b, d}, {a, c, d}, {b, c, d}, {a, b, c, d} }
2) If U = {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8}, A = {1,2,4}, B = {3,4,5,6}, C = {3,4,7}, find
a. (A ∩ B) ∪ (A ∩ C)
b. (A – B)1
c. A-(B U C)
d. (A U B)1
e. (A-B) X (A-C)
a. (A ∩ B) ∪ (A ∩ C)
A ∩ B = {3, 4} (elements common to both A and B)
A ∩ C = {4} (elements common to both A and C)
(A ∩ B) ∪ (A ∩ C) = {3, 4} (take the union of elements from both
intersections)
b. (A – B)
A – B = {1, 2} (elements in A but not in B)
c. A – (B ∪ C)
B ∪ C = {3, 4, 5, 6, 7} (elements in B or C or both)
A – (B ∪ C) = {1, 2} (elements in A but not in any element of B or C)
d. (A U B)
A U B = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6} (elements in A or B or both)
e. (A – B) X (A – C) X
X signifies the Cartesian product, which means all possible ordered pairs
between two sets.
(A – B) X (A – C) = {(1, 4), (2, 4), (1, 7), (2, 7)} (all combinations of
elements from A – B and A – C)
3) Draw the Venn diagrams for following
a. (A-B) U (A-C)
b. A-(B U C)
c. C) A I U B1
4) What will be the Cardinality of the Power Set of {a,b,c,d,e}
The cardinality of the power set of the set {a, b, c, d, e} can be found using the
formula 2^n, where n is the number of elements in the original set.
In this case, n = 5 (since there are five elements in the set {a, b, c, d, e}).
Therefore, the cardinality of the power set will be:
2^5 = 32.
So, the power set of {a, b, c, d, e} will have 32 elements.
5) There are 30 students in a class. Among them, 8 students are learning both
English and French. A total of 18 students are learning English. If every student is
learning at least one language, how many students are learning French in total?
6) In a survey of 80 people, it was found that 35 people read newspaper H, 20 read
newspaper T, 15 read the newspaper I, 5 read both H and I, 10 read both H and T, 7
read both T and I, 4 read all three newspapers. Find the number of people who
read at least one of the newspapers?
7) In a school, all pupils play either Hockey or Football or both. 400 play Football, 150
play Hockey, and 130 play both the games. Find (i) The number of pupils who play
Football only,
(ii) The number of pupils who play Hockey only, (iii) The total number of pupils in the
school.

reflexive, symmetric but not transitive.
