Question 1

What does it mean for A ∩ C ⊆ B ∩ C?

A ⊆ B
A ∩ B ⊆ C
C is empty

💡 Hint: Think of the implications of the filter analogy we discussed.

Question 2

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Can there exist a relation on a set with no overlap, yet be both symmetric and irreflexive? Justify your answer.

💡 Hint: Contrast the definitions to guide your reasoning.

Challenge 2 Hard

Create a relation matrix for 3 elements that exemplifies a reflexive yet symmetric relation.

💡 Hint: Remember to ensure all ordered pairs considered satisfy the properties discussed.
