If A,B,C are finite sets whose elements are
from the same universal set U and n(A)
denotes the number of element in the set A
(a) Show by means of venn diagram that
n(A ∪ B) = n(A) + n(B) − n(A ∩ B)
(b) Using the fact that (A ∪ B ∪ C) = (A∪B)∪C
=A∪(B∪C) deduce an expression for
(A∪B∪C)
(c) If n(A∪B)= n(A∩B), what can be said
about A and B? How did you reach your conclusion.
Thank you in advance
