Question

Course Name: Theory of Automata

Requirement: Plz don't copy the solution from the internet.

Q. Let us reconsider the regular expression
(a + b)*a(a + b)*b(a + b)*
     (i) Show that this is equivalent to
        (a + b)*ab(a + b)*
         in the sense that they define the same language.
     (ii) Show that
         (a + b)*ab(a +b)* + b*a* = (a + b)*
     (iii) Show that
        (a + b)* ab[(a + b)*ab(a + b)* + b*a*] + b*a* = (a + b)*
