Prove Corollary with all details ( use Topology discrete)
![Theorem 5.4: If Y is a connected subspace of a space X, then Ÿ is connected.
Proof: Suppose Y is connected. For a change of pace, the connectedness of Ỹ will
be shown by proving that there is no continuous function from Ÿ onto a discrete two-
point space.
Consider a continuous function f: Ÿ → {a, b} from Ÿ into such a discrete
space. We must show that f is not surjective. The restriction f | y cannot be surjective.
This means that f maps Y to only one point of {a, b}, say a:
KY) = {a}.

Since f is continuous, Theorem 4.11 guarantees that
KỸ) CRY) = {ā} = {a},
so f is not surjective. Thus, by Theorem 5.1, Ý is connected.

An examination of the preceding proof will reveal that Theorem 5.4 can be
strengthened as follows:
Corollary: Let Y be a connected subspace of a space X and Z a subspace of X
such that Y C ZCỸ. Then Z is connected.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2Fa279d709-2503-4944-8ec2-0472e9533efc%2F9c0abc63-dcf5-4455-a95b-f9d7fdc20e0a%2Fy2elw9o_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
