Define union of sets.

Back

The union of two sets A and B, denoted as A ∪ B, is the set of elements that are in A, in B, or in both.

Front

Define intersection of sets.

Back

The intersection of two sets A and B, denoted as A ∩ B, is the set of elements that are common to both A and B.

Front

What is the complement of a set?

Back

The complement of a set A, denoted as A', is the set of all elements not in A, relative to a universal set.

Front

How do you represent an empty set?

Back

The empty set is represented by the symbol ∅ or by using set notation as {}.

Front

What does a Venn diagram represent?

Back

A Venn diagram visually represents the relationships between different sets, showing their intersections, unions, and complements.
