    Let \[A=\{\phi ,\{\phi \},\{\phi ,\{\phi \}\}\},\] where \[\phi \]is a null set, then

    A)  \[\phi \subseteq A,\phi \in A,\{\phi \}\in A,\{\phi \}\subseteq A\]is true

    B)  \[\phi \in A\]but\[\phi \underline{\not\subset }A\]

    C)  \[\{\phi \}\in A\]but\[\phi \,\underline{\not\subset }\,A\]        

    D)  A is a null set

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

     The given set is \[A=\{\phi ,\{\phi \},\{\phi ,\{\phi \}\}\}\] Since empty set is a subset of every set \[\therefore \]                  \[\phi \subseteq A\] Also, \[\phi \] is an element of the given set A \[\Rightarrow \]                               \[\phi \in A\]. Now, since \[\{\phi \}\] is an element of the set A \[\Rightarrow \]                               \[\{\phi \}\in A\] Also \[\{\phi \}\] is a subset of A being an element of a set A. \[\therefore \]                  \[\{\phi \}\subseteq A\]               So, correct option is [a].
