Please solve 2.36 and 2.37

Problem 2.36. Let X be a space and YC X. Give Y the subspace topology. Describe (in
a useful way) the closed sets in Y.
Proposition 2.37. Let X be a space, Y C X, and Z C Y. Give Y the subspace topology.
The following hold:
(1) Suppose Y is closed in X. Then Z closed in Y implies Z closed in X.
(2) Suppose Y is open in X. Then Z open in Y implies Z open in X.
Problem 2.38. Show by example(s) that Proposition 2.37 does not generally hold if Y is
not closed (respectively, not open) in X.
Problem 2.39. Let X be a space and Y C X. Give Y the subspace topology. Let ACY.
The notation A is ambiguous. Do we mean the closure of A in the original space X or the
closure of A in the subspace Y? Show by example that this is really ambiguous. Second
point: Find a good disambiguating notational solution.
