MCQ
If $A$ and $B$ are two sets, then $A \cap(A \cup B)$ equals
  • A
    B
  • B
    $\phi$
  • C
    A
  • D
    $A \cap B$

Answer

(c) A
Explanation: Let us assume that $x \in A \cap(A \cup B)$
$\begin{array}{l}\Rightarrow x \in A \text { and } x \in(A \cup B) \\
\Rightarrow x \in A \text { and }(x \in A \text { or } x \in B) \\
\Rightarrow(x \in A \text { and } x \in A) \text { or }(x \in A \text { and } x \in B) \\
\Rightarrow x \in A \text { or } x \in A \cap B \\
\Rightarrow x \in A\end{array}$
Therefore, $A \cap(A \cup B)=A$
