2. Paste another strip on the right hand side of the cardboard and fix two nails in the plastic strip as shown in
Fig.3.2. Name the nails on the strip as a and b.
3. Join nails on the left strip to the nails on the right strip as shown in Fig. 3.3.

DEMONSTRATION:
1. Take the set X = {1, 2, 3}
2. Take the set Y = {a, b}
3. Join (correspondence) elements of X to the elements of Y as shown in Fig. 3.3

OBSERVATION:

1. The image of the element 1 of X in Y is __________.


The image of the element 2 of X in Y is __________.
The image of the element 3 of X in Y is __________.
