If A = {1, 2, 3} and B = {2, 4}, state the elements of A × A, A × B,

1.	If A = {1, 2, 3} and B = {2, 4}, state the elements of A × A, A × B, B × A, B × B, (A × B) ∩ (B × A).
Answer» A = {1, 2, 3} and B = {2, 4} A × A = {(1, 1), (1, 2), (1, 3), (2, 1), (2, 2), (2, 3), (3, 1), (3, 2), (3, 3)} A × B = {(1, 2), (1, 4), (2, 2), (2, 4), (3, 2), (3, 4)} B × A = {(2, 1), (2, 2), (2, 3), (4, 1), (4, 2), (4, 3)} B × B = {(2, 2), (2, 4), (4, 2), (4, 4)} ∴ (A × B) ∩ (B × A) = {(2, 2)}

If A = {1, 2, 3} and B = {2, 4}, state the elements of A × A, A × B, B × A, B × B, (A × B) ∩ (B × A).

Answer»

A = {1, 2, 3} and B = {2, 4}

A × A = {(1, 1), (1, 2), (1, 3), (2, 1), (2, 2), (2, 3), (3, 1), (3, 2), (3, 3)}

A × B = {(1, 2), (1, 4), (2, 2), (2, 4), (3, 2), (3, 4)}

B × A = {(2, 1), (2, 2), (2, 3), (4, 1), (4, 2), (4, 3)}

B × B = {(2, 2), (2, 4), (4, 2), (4, 4)}

∴ (A × B) ∩ (B × A) = {(2, 2)}
