Ordered Pairs The ordered pair of two elements a and b is denoted by (a, b): a is first element (or first
component) and b is second element (or second component).
Two ordered pairs are equal if their corresponding elements are equal.
i.e. (a, b) = (c, d) ⇒ a = c and b = d
Cartesian Product of Two Sets For two non-empty sets A and B, the cartesian product A × B is the set of all
ordered pairs of elements from sets A and B.
In symbolic form, it can be written as
A × B = {(a, b): a ∈ A, b ∈ B}
(i) Let A and B be two sets such that A × B consists of 6 elements. If three elements of A × B are (1, 4), (2,
6) and (3, 6), then find A× B and B× A.
(ii) If (x + 2, 4) = (5, 2x + y), then find the value of x and y.
(iii) If (x + 6, y - 2) = (0, 6), then find the value of x and y.
OR
If (a - 3, b + 7) = (3, 7), then find the value of a and b.
