If ` A cap B = A cup B` then what can we conclude ?
Text Solution
Verified by Experts
We have `A cap B = A cup B ` Consider the following cases: (i)` A sub B = A and cup B = Bm So, ` `A cap B ne A cup B ` (ii) `B sub A` For this case ,` A cap B = B and A cup B` = A, So , `A cap B ne A cap B ` (iii) A and B are disjoint For this case `A cap B = phi " and " A cup B `= set of all element of set A and set B `So, A cap B ne A cup B ` (iv) Sets A and B have some elements common for this case , `A cap B` have some elements but ` A cap B ` is the So ,` A cap B ne A cup B ` From the above cases ,we conclude that sets A and B are same . So A= B .
