Exercise · ZW-INTERIOR-OF-A-SET-004 · ★☆☆ Basic

In \(X=\{1,2,3,4\}\) with \(\mathcal{T}=\{\varnothing,\{1\},\{3\},\{1,3\},\{1,2,3\},\{1,3,4\},\{1,2,3,4\}\}\), what is the interior of \(A=\{1,2,4\}\)?

Choose one option.

Show answer
  • A. \(\{1\}\)

Explanation

The only nonempty open set contained in \(A\) is \(\{1\}\); \(\{1,3,4\}\) and \(\{1,2,3\}\) are not inside \(A\).

Review the concept: Interior of a set

The interior \(\operatorname{int}A\) of a subset \(A\) of a topological space \((X,\mathcal{T})\) is the largest open set \(U\in\mathcal{T}\) contained in \(A\).

\[\operatorname{int}A=\bigcup\{U\in\mathcal{T}:\ U\subseteq A\}\]
