(c) \(\left\{ 2 \right\}\) is an element of the given set

(d) \(\left\{ 2 \right\}\) is an element of the given set

(e) \(\left\{ 2 \right\}\) is an element of the given set

(f) \(\left\{ 2 \right\}\) is not an element of the given set

Step by step solution

01

Definitions of Set

An unordered collection of elements or members is known as set.

02

Determine whether {2} is an element of the given sets

Consider the given set.

\(\left\{ {x \in \left. {\rm{R}} \right|x\;{\rm{is an integer greater than 1}}} \right\}\)

The given set contain \(2\) but it does not contain set \(\left\{ 2 \right\}\). Therefore, \(\left\{ 2 \right\}\) is not an element of the given set.

Consider the given set.

\(\left\{ {x \in \left. {\rm{R}} \right|x\;{\rm{is the}}\;{\rm{square}}\;{\rm{of}}\;{\rm{an}}\;{\rm{integer}}} \right\}\)

The given set contains all squares of integers, and \(\left\{ 2 \right\}\) is not the square of any integer.

Therefore, \(\left\{ 2 \right\}\) is not an element of the given set.

Consider the given set.

\(\left\{ {2,\;\left\{ 2 \right\}} \right\}\)

The given set contains a subset \(\left\{ 2 \right\}\).

Therefore, \(\left\{ 2 \right\}\) is an element of the given set.

Consider the given set.

\(\left\{ {\left\{ 2 \right\},\;\left\{ {\left\{ 2 \right\}} \right\}} \right\}\)

The set contains the subset \(\left\{ 2 \right\}\) on left.

Therefore, \(\left\{ 2 \right\}\) is an element of the given set.

Consider the given set.

\(\left\{ {\left\{ 2 \right\},\;\left\{ {2,\;\left\{ 2 \right\}} \right\}} \right\}\)

The set contains the subset \(\left\{ 2 \right\}\).

Therefore, \(\left\{ 2 \right\}\) is an element of the given set.

Consider the given set.

\(\left\{ {\left\{ {\left\{ 2 \right\}} \right\}} \right\}\)

The set contains the subset \(\left\{ {\left\{ 2 \right\}} \right\}\) not \(\left\{ 2 \right\}\).

Therefore, \(\left\{ 2 \right\}\) is not an element of the given set.
