Determine whether * is a binary operation on the sets-given below.
a * b – a.|b| on R
उत्तर
Yes.
Reason: a, b ∈ R.
So, |b| ∈ R
When b ∈ R
Now multiplication is binary on R
So a|b| ∈ R when a, b ∈ R.
(Le.) a * b ∈ R.

Consider the binary operations*: R ×R → and o: R × R → R defined as a * b = |a - b| and ao b = a, &mnForE;a, b ∈ R. Show that * is commutative but not associative, o is associative but not commutative. Further, show that &mnForE;a, b, c ∈ R, a*(b o c) = (a* b) o (a * c). [If it is so, we say that the operation * distributes over the operation o]. Does o distribute over *? Justify your answer.
