MCQ
Which of the following is a convex set?
  • A
    $\left\{(x, y): y^2 \geq x\right\}$
  • B
    $\left\{(x, y): x^2+y^2 \geq 1\right\}$
  • $\{(x, y): x \geq 2, y \leq 4\}$
  • D
    $\left.\{x, y): 3 x^2+4 y^2 \geq 5\right\}$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$\{(x, y): x \geq 2, y \leq 4\}$
(c) $\{(x, y): x \geq 2, y \leq 4\}$
Explanation: $\{(x, y): x \geq 2, y \leq 4\}$is the region between two parallel lines, so any line segment joining any two points in it lies in it. Hence, it is a convex set.
