Sets and Relation – Solutions
1. (c) Since set A is, |a – 5| < 14 < a < 6
And |b – 5| < 14 < b < 6
a 6 b 5
2 2
Now, B is 1
9 4
It can be seen that all vertices of rectangle lie inside the ellipse, therefore A ⊂ B
2. (a) f(t) = (|λ|et − μ) sin 2t t>0
t
−(|λ| e − μ) sin 2t t<0
f′(t) = 2 cos 2t (|λ|e − μ) + |λ|e sin 2t t > 0
t t
t
−2 cos 2t (|λ|et − μ) + |λ| e sin 2t t>0
f′(t → ot) = 2(|λ| − μ)
f′(t → o ) = −2(|λ| − μ)
for differentiability LHD = RHD
2(|λ| − μ) = −2(|λ| − μ)
|λ| = μ
⟹ λ ∈ R μ ∈ Rt
(λ, μ) C R × [0, ∞)
3. (d)
Since, for every element of A, there exists elements (3, 3), (6, 6), (9, 9), (12, 12) ∈ R ⟹ R is
reflexive relation.
Now, (6, 12) ∈ R but (12, 6) R, so it is not a symmetric relation.
Also, (3, 6), (6, 12) ∈ R
⟹ (3, 12) ∈ R
∴ R is transitive relation.
4. (c) Number of subsets of {a, b, c} = 23 = 8
∴ Number of elements in the power set = 8
5. (c)
6. (a)
7. (a)
8. (d)
Selection of three elements in A such that f(x) = y2 = 7 C 3
Now, for remaining 4 elements in A we have 2 elements in B.

9. (b)
10. (b)
Given, A ∩ B = A ∩ C and A ∪ B = A ∪ C
∴B=C
11. (c)
12. (c) Clearly (c) is function from A to B.
13. (a)
14. (c)
15. (c)
16. (a)
17. (c) Number of proper subsets = 23 – 2 = 6
18. (a)
19. (a)
20. (a)
From De-Morgan-s law, A ' B C A ' B A ' C
21. (c) Here A and B sets having 2 elements in common, so A × B and B × A have 2 2 i.e., 4
elements in common.
Hence, n[(A × B) ∩ (B × A)] = 4
22. (a)
n(A × A) = n(A) . n(A) = 32 = 9.
So, the total number of subsets of A × A is 29 and a subset of A × A is a relation over the set A.
23. (a)
(1, 1), (2, 2), (3, 3), (4, 4) 𝜖 R;
∴ R is reflective
∵ (1, 2), (3, 1) 𝜖 R and also (2, 1), (1, 3) 𝜖 R.
Hence, R is symmetric. But clearly R is not transitive.
