Functions Ques 11
- Let $A$ and $B$ be two sets each with a finite number of elements. Assume that there is an injective mapping from $A$ to $B$ and that there is an injective mapping from $B$ to $A$. Prove that there is a bijective mapping from $A$ to $B$.
Show Answer
Solution:
Since, there is an injective mapping from $A$ to $B$, each element of $A$ has unique image in $B$.
Similarly, there is also an injective mapping from $B$ to $A$, each element of $B$ has unique image in $A$ or in other words there is one to one onto mapping from $A$ to $B$.
Thus, there is bijective mapping from $A$ to $B$.
