SUMMARY
The discussion centers on the measurability of the inverse image of a set under a function. It is established that if E is a measurable set, then its inverse image f-1(E) is also measurable. Consequently, the complement of this inverse image, f-1(E)c, is also measurable. This conclusion is supported by the principle that the complement of a measurable set is measurable.
