Which of the following pairs of sets are disjoint?

(i) {1, 2, 3, 4} and {x : x is a natural number and 4 ≤ x ≤ 6 }

(ii) { a, e, i, o, u } and { c, d, e, f }

(iii) {x : x is an even integer } and {x : x is an odd integer}

Solution

(i)  A = {1, 2, 3, 4},

Hence, A and B are not disjoint sets.

∴   A and B are not disjoint sets.

(iii)    A   =   {x : x is an even integer}
              = {........, -6, -4, -2, 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, ................}
         B = {and {x : x is an odd integer} = {........., -5, -3, -1, 1, 3, 5, 7, .............}

Hence, A and B are disjoint sets.
