Step 1: Write the sets clearly.
Set \( A = \{P, O, L, Y, T, E, C, H, N, I\} \)
Set \( B = \{E, X, A, M\} \)
Step 2: Understand the operation.
The symbol \( \cap \) represents the intersection of two sets, i.e., elements that are common to both sets.
Step 3: Compare the elements of set B with set A.
- \( E \) is in both A and B.
- \( X \), \( A \), and \( M \) are not present in set A.
Step 4: Write the result.
Only \( E \) is common. So, \( A \cap B = \{E\} \)
The correct option is (B): {E}
