Given K1 , K2 are compact set .

(a). Let (xn) be a sequence in K1 K2 .

at least one of K1 and K2 contains infinite number of elements of the sequence (xn) .

If K1 contains infinite number of points then it has a covergent subsequence and if K2 contains infinite number of points then it has a convergent subsequence on K2 and so in K1 K2 .

So in either case (xn) has a convergent subsequence in K1 K2 .

Hence K1 K2 is compact .

(b) . As K1 and K2 both are compact set so they are closed and bounded .

Now union of two closed sed is closed so K1 K2 is closed .

Also union of two bounded sed is bounded so K1 K2 is bounded.

As K1 K2 is closed as well as bonded so it is compct .

(c). Let U1 , U2 , U3 ,........ be a open cover for K1 K2 .

As K1 K1 K2 so U1 , U2 , U3, ....... also be a open cover for K1 and as K1 is compact this cover has a finite subcover say V1, V2,....,Vn ( here each Vi is some Uj )

Similarly as K2 K1 K2 so U1 , U2 , U3, ....... also be a open cover for K2 and as K2 is compact this cover has a finite subcover say W1,W2,......,Wm

V1, V2 , V3 ,....,Vn, W1 , W2,.....,Wm be a finite subcover for K1 K2 .

So the cover U1 , U2 , ....... has a finite subcover .

Hence K1 K2 is compact .
