Concept:

  • \(\rm P(A|B) = \frac {P(A \;∩ \; B)}{P(B)}\)
  • \(\rm P(B|A) = \frac {P(A \;∩ \; B)}{P(A)}\)
  • A ⊂ B = Proper Subset: every element of A is in B, but B has more elements.
  • ϕ = Empty set = {}

 

Calculation:

Given: P(B/A) = 1

⇒ \(\rm P(B|A) = \frac {P(A \;∩ \; B)}{P(A)} = 1\)

⇒ P(A ∩ B) = P(A)

⇒ (A ∩ B) = A

So, every element of A is in B, but B has more elements.

∴ A ⊂ B
