The correct Answer is:
To solve the question "If A is a subset of B, then which one of the following is correct?", we will analyze the relationship between sets A and B, as well as their complements. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Subsets**: - By definition, if \( A \) is a subset of \( B \) (denoted as \( A \subseteq B \)), it means that every element of \( A \) is also an element of \( B \). 2. **Defining Complements**: - The complement of a set \( B \), denoted as \( B' \) or \( B^c \), includes all the elements in the universal set \( U \) that are not in \( B \). - Similarly, the complement of set \( A \), denoted as \( A' \) or \( A^c \), includes all the elements in \( U \) that are not in \( A \). 3. **Analyzing Complements**: - Since \( A \subseteq B \), it follows that all elements not in \( B \) (i.e., elements in \( B' \)) will also not be in \( A \). Therefore, \( B' \) contains elements that are not in \( A \). - This implies that \( A' \) (elements not in \( A \)) will include all elements in \( B' \) (elements not in \( B \)), which means \( B' \subseteq A' \). 4. **Conclusion**: - From the above analysis, we conclude that if \( A \subseteq B \), then \( B' \subseteq A' \) is a correct statement. ### Final Answer: The correct statement is: **\( B' \subseteq A' \)**. ---
