Step-by-step explanation:
The trivial case first: If A⊆B and A=∅, then A∩B=∅=A. Conversely, if A∩B=A and A=∅, then A⊆B, since ∅ is a subset of every set.
Now, suppose A≠∅. Suppose A⊆B. If x∈A, then , from the definition of subset. Thus, and . Therefore, by the definition of intersection of sets, . Therefore, every in is in . From the definition of containment, . Each element of is in both and , so . Since and , the definition of set equality gives . For the converse. If , then since , . Q.E.D.
Now, write it up nicely in your own hand before turning it in.
