Consider the languages L1 = and L2 = {a}. Which one of the following represents L1 L2* U L1*

{ε}

{∅}

a*

{ε,a}

L1 L2* U L1* Result of L1 L2* is [Tex]\phi[/Tex]. {[Tex]\phi[/Tex]} indicates an empty language. Concatenation of [Tex]\phi[/Tex] with any other language is [Tex]\phi[/Tex]. It works as 0 in multiplication. L1* = [Tex]\phi[/Tex]* which is {[Tex]\epsilon[/Tex]}. Union of [Tex]\phi[/Tex] and {[Tex]\epsilon[/Tex]} is {[Tex]\epsilon[/Tex]}
