Answer #1

In case of any queries, please revert back.

We will solve this using pumping lemma.

Let L=a^{m}b^{n}c^{n} where m,n>=0.

Lets define constant of Pumping lemma as N.

So, some word=a^{1}b^{N}c^{N} and this is a part of L. If we assume Language L as regular, we can say the following.

word=xyz such that |xy|<=N such that xy^{k}z for all k>=0. Now if x=\epsilon, y=b,z=c . This means for k=0, we have :-

xy^{0}z=b^{N}c^{N}which does not belong to language L as a is missing. So, this statement is contracdicted.

So, Language L is not Regular as per pumping lemma.
