Exercise-1.4
43. Determine whether or not each of the definition of given below gives a binary operation. In the event that * is not a binary operation, give justification for this.
(i) On Z+ , define * by a * b = a − b
(ii) On Z+, define * by a * b = ab
(iii) On R, define * by a * b = ab2
(iv) On Z+, define * by a * b = |a − b|
(v) On Z+, define * by a * b = a
Exercise-1.4
43. Determine whether or not each of the definition of given below gives a binary operation. In the event that * is not a binary operation, give justification for this.
(i) On Z+ , define * by a * b = a − b
(ii) On Z+, define * by a * b = ab
(iii) On R, define * by a * b = ab2
(iv) On Z+, define * by a * b = |a − b|
(v) On Z+, define * by a * b = a
(i) On Z+, * is defined by a * b = a − b.
It is not a binary operation as the image of (1, 2) under * is 1 * 2 = 1 − 2= −1 ∉ Z+.
(ii) On Z+, * is defined by a * b = ab.
It is seen that for each a, b ∈ Z+, there is a unique element ab in Z+.
This means that * carries each pair (a, b) to a unique eleme

42. Let be a function defined as . The inverse of f is map g Range
It is given that is defined as
Let y be an arbitrary element of Range f.
Then, there exists such that
let us define g: Range
Thus, g is the inverse of f i.e.,
Hence, the inverse of f is the map g: Range which is given by

The correct answer is C.
40. Let f: X → Y be an invertible function. Show that the inverse of f−1 is f, i.e., (f−1)−1 = f.
40. Let f: X → Y be an invertible function. Show that the inverse of f−1 is f, i.e., (f−1)−1 = f.
Let f: X → Y be an invertible function.
Then, there exists a function g: Y → X such that gof = IX and fog = IY.
Here, f−1 = g.
Now, gof = IX and fog = IY
⇒ f−1 of = IX and fof−1 = IY
Hence, f−1 : Y → X is invertible and f is the inverse of f−1
i.e., (f−1)−1 = f.
39. Consider f: {1, 2, 3} → {a, b, c} given by f(1) = a, f(2) = b and f(3) = c. Find f−1 and show that (f−1)−1 = f.
39. Consider f: {1, 2, 3} → {a, b, c} given by f(1) = a, f(2) = b and f(3) = c. Find f−1 and show that (f−1)−1 = f.
If we define then we have:
Thus, the inverse of f exists and
is given by,
Let us now find the inverse of i.e., find the inverse of g.
If we define
, then we have
Thus, the inverse of g exists and
It can be noted that h=f.
Hence,
38. Let f: X → Y be an invertible function. Show that f has unique inverse.
(Hint: suppose g1 and g2 are two inverses of f. Then for all y ∈ Y, fog1(y) = IY(y) = fog2(y). Use one-one ness of f).
38. Let f: X → Y be an invertible function. Show that f has unique inverse.
(Hint: suppose g1 and g2 are two inverses of f. Then for all y ∈ Y, fog1(y) = IY(y) = fog2(y). Use one-one ness of f).
Let be an invertible function.
Also, suppose f has two inverses (say g1 and g2 ).
Then, for all y ∈ Y, we have:
[f is invertible => f is one-one]
[g is one-one]
Hence, f has a unique inverse.

Thus, f is one-one and onto and therefore, exists.
Let us define by
Hence, f is invertible and the inverse of f is given by

33. State with reason whether following functions have inverse
(i) f: {1, 2, 3, 4} → {10} with f = {(1, 10), (2, 10), (3, 10), (4, 10)}
(ii) g: {5, 6, 7, 8} → {1, 2, 3, 4} with g = {(5, 4), (6, 3), (7, 4), (8, 2)}

(i) f: {1, 2, 3, 4} → {10} with f = {(1, 10), (2, 10), (3, 10), (4, 10)}
(ii) g: {5, 6, 7, 8} → {1, 2, 3, 4} with g = {(5, 4), (6, 3), (7, 4), (8, 2)}

(i) f: {1, 2, 3, 4} → {10} defined as:
f = { (1, 10), (2, 10), (3, 10), (4, 10)}
From the given definition of f, we can see that f is a many one function as: f (1) = f (2) = f (3) = f (4) = 10
∴f is not one-one.
Hence, function f does not have an inverse.
