How Does the Openness of A Affect A∩B' in a Metric Space?

[seyma]

Let (X,d) be a metric space A and B nonempty subsets of X and A is open. Show:
A\capB = \oslash Iff A\capB(closure)= empty
Only B closure
it is easy to show rigth to left but how can i use A's open property I try to solve with contradiction s.t. there exist r>0 Br(p)\subseteqA\capB(closure) but i cannot come conlusion. Can you help me please ? :(

Umm... I think you're missing part of the iff statement

yeah sorry i forget to write empty

Are you able to show that A \cap B' is empty (where B' is the set of limit points for B)? What is the definition of A being open (use the neighborhood definition)? What is the requirement that a point be an element of B' (use the deleted neighborhood definition)?

Using these definitions, you can work a proof by contradiction.
