Step-by-Step Solution

Verified
Answer

It is proved that the a R2 is both an open subset and a closed subset of R2.

1Step 1. Given information.

We have given set is R2.

2Step 2: Prove the given statement.

A subset is said to be open if it does not have a boundary to identify.

The given set is a universal set. It involves all the points in the space of R2. It does not have any boundary to identify. So, it is an open set.
The complement of R2 is an empty set, which is both open and closed set.
Thus, a R2 is Both Open and Closed Set
