This chapter is crucial because it builds the foundation of function behavior (domain, range, injectivity, surjectivity, inverse functions) and the structure of relations. These concepts repeatedly appear in board exams and competitive tests, especially in questions involving inverse functions, mappings, and function properties like injective/surjective/bijective and idempotent/involution functions.

Q9. Let be a set with elements. How many functions satisfy for all ?
Q10. Assertion (A): Let be a function. If there exist and such that and , then and is bijective.
Reason (R): A left inverse of implies is injective, a right inverse implies is surjective; existence of both implies exists and equals both inverses.
Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
A is true but R is false.
A is false but R is true.
Q11. Consider the function given by . Which of the following is true?
is one-to-one but not onto.
is both one-to-one and onto.
is onto but not one-to-one.
is neither one-to-one nor onto.
Q12. Find the range of the function defined by .
Q13. Let be a set with . How many functions satisfy for all ?
Q14. Assertion (A): The function defined by is bijective.
Reason (R): for all , with only at isolated points, so for we have , and .
Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
Both A and R are true but R is NOT the correct explanation of A.
A is true but R is false.
A is false but R is true.
Q15. Let and be functions (non-empty sets) such that . Which statement must be true?
is surjective and need not be injective.
is injective and is surjective.
is injective and is injective.
