Answers (1)

The answer is the option (a).  Let x\in A\cap (A\cup B)

\begin{aligned} \Rightarrow x\in A&\text{ and }x\in (A\cup B) \\ \Rightarrow x\in A &\text{ and } (x\in A \text{ or } x\in B) \\ \Rightarrow (x\in A &\text{ and } x\in A)\text{ or } (x\in A\text{ and } x\in B \\ \Rightarrow x\in A &\text{ or } x\in A\cap B\end{aligned}

Hence A is correct.
