Solution

f : A × B → B × A is defined as f(a, b) = (b, a).

Let (a1, b1), (a2, b2) ∈ A × B such that f(a1, b1) = (a2, b2).

⇒ (b1, a1) = (b2, a2)

⇒ b1 = b2 and a1 = a2

⇒ (a1, b1) = (a2, b2)

∴ f is injective.

Now, let (b, a) ∈ B × A be any element.

Then, there exists (a, b) ∈ A × B such that f(a, b) = (b, a).  ....[By definition of f]

∴ f is bijective.
