Which of the following sets are empty sets ? Choose the correct alternative answer for the following question.
(A) set of intersecting points of parallel lines
(B) set of even prime numbers.(C) Month of an english calendar having less than 30 days.(D) P = {x|x∈I,-1
Answers
Answer:
(A). Set of intersecting points of parallel lines.
Step-by-step explanation:
In the question,
Empty sets: Empty sets are the sets those who don't consist any value and is represented by ∅.
The parallel lines are never intersecting with each other, therefore, any point lying on the two parallel distinct lines, can never be common with each other.
So,
The set of intersecting points of parallel lines will be an Empty Set, ∅.
However,
We have one even Prime number as well therefore, the intersection will not be an Empty set.
and,
Month of English calendars have February having less than 30 days.
also,
-1 is an Integer.
Hence, the correct option is (A).
DEFINITION
EMPTY SET
A set is said to be Empty Set if it contains no element
TO CHOOSE THE CORRECT OPTION
Search for Empty sets from below sets :
- (A) Set of intersecting points of parallel lines
- (B) Set of even prime numbers.
- (C) Set of Month of an english calendar having less than 30 days.
- (D) P = {x|x∈ I ,-1<x<1}
CALCULATION
CHECKING FOR OPTION : 1
Since two parallel lines never intersect
Hence the Set of intersecting points of parallel lines is EMPTY
CHECKING FOR OPTION : 2
Let S be the Set of even prime numbers
Now 2 is the only even prime number
Therefore S = { 2 }
So S is a singleton set
Hence the Set of even prime numbers is NON EMPTY
CHECKING FOR OPTION : 3
Let M be Month of an english calendar having less than 30 days
Since February is the only month of an english calendar having less than 30 days
Therefore M = { February }
So M is a singleton set
Hence the set month of an english calendar having less than 30 days is NON EMPTY
CHECKING FOR OPTION : 4
P = { x : x ∈ I ,-1<x<1 }
Since I is the set of integers
Therefore P = { 0 }
So P is a singleton set
Hence P = { x : x ∈ I ,-1<x<1 } is a NON EMPTY set
