Prove that (AB)c = Ac
Bc (Demorgan’s Law)
a)
1) Let x be an arbitrary element of (AB)c
2) x(A
B) (By Definition of Complement)
3) xA but x
Ac (Definition of Union And Definition of Complement)
4) xB but x
Bc (Definition of Union And Definition of Complement)
5) xAc, x
Bc <-> x
Ac
Bc
6) But x is an arbitrary element of (AUB)c
7) Thus (AB)c
Ac
Bc
b) And Conversely
1) Let y be an arbitrary element of AcBc
2) yAc, y
Bc (By Definition of intersection)
3) yA, y
B (Definition of Complement)
4) yA U B (From b(3))
5) y(A U B)c
6) But y is an arbitrary element of AcBc
7) Thus AcBc
(A
B)c
From a7 and b7 we have
(AB)c = Ac
Bc
What is wrong in above statements? any help please?
Thank You.
Note: Solution is also atatched in doc file.
