Homework Statement



if A ={a}, B={b,c}, C={d,e,f,g,h,i,j}

Find P(A*B)
and |P(B*C)|



Homework Equations





The Attempt at a Solution



so for the first one I had

[{(a,b)}, {(a,c)}, {(a,b),(a,c)}, ∅]

and secondly 2^14.

is this right I don't know what is meant by the use of this |..| around a power set?

Sorry its meant to mean A times B

dont know what the proper sign is ? or do I just use ()

Sets have union and intersection operations. What is the definition of A "times" B?

Its a Cartesian product
 
Ok, now that I understand your notation your answers look fine. The absolute value signs around a set just means how many elements it contains. So your ##2^{14}## is correct.
 
Prove $$\int\limits_0^{\sqrt2/4}\frac{1}{\sqrt{x-x^2}}\arcsin\sqrt{\frac{(x-1)\left(x-1+x\sqrt{9-16x}\right)}{1-2x}} \, \mathrm dx = \frac{\pi^2}{8}.$$ Let $$I = \int\limits_0^{\sqrt 2 / 4}\frac{1}{\sqrt{x-x^2}}\arcsin\sqrt{\frac{(x-1)\left(x-1+x\sqrt{9-16x}\right)}{1-2x}} \, \mathrm dx. \tag{1}$$ The representation integral of ##\arcsin## is $$\arcsin u = \int\limits_{0}^{1} \frac{\mathrm dt}{\sqrt{1-t^2}}, \qquad 0 \leqslant u \leqslant 1.$$ Plugging identity above into ##(1)## with ##u...
