Solution :-

(i) Right answer is True

Explanation:-

A rational number is represented by the form \( \dfrac{p}{q}\) where p and q are integers and (q not equal to 0) keeping q = 1 we can place any number as p. Which then will be an integer.

(ii) Right answer is True

Explanation:-

Crows are also birds, so they are contained in the set of all birds.

(iii) Right answer is False

Explanation:-

Every square can be a rectangle, but every rectangle cannot be a square.

(iv) Right answer is False

Explanation:-

Every square can be a rectangle, but every rectangle cannot be a square.

(v) Right answer is False

Explanation:-

P = {a}

B = {{a}}

But {a} = P

B = {P}

Hence they are not equal.

(vi) Right answer is True

Explanation:-

A = For “LITTLE”

A = {L, I, T, E} = {E, I, L, T}

B = For “TITLE”

B = {T, I, L, E} = {E, I, L, T}

A = B
