What is a Venn Diagram?

Back

A Venn Diagram is a visual representation of the relationships between different sets, often using overlapping circles to show commonalities and differences.

What does the intersection of two sets in a Venn Diagram represent?

Back

The intersection of two sets represents the elements that are common to both sets.

Front

How do you determine the number of elements that belong to only one set in a Venn Diagram?

Back

To find the number of elements that belong to only one set, subtract the number of elements in the intersection from the total number of elements in that set.

Front

If set A has 10 elements and set B has 5 elements, and they have 2 elements in common, how many elements are in A or B?

Back

The number of elements in A or B is calculated as |A| + |B| - |A ∩ B| = 10 + 5 - 2 = 13.

In a Venn Diagram, if 16 students have brown hair and 3 students have both brown hair and glasses, how many students have only brown hair?

The formula is |A ∪ B| = |A| + |B| - |A ∩ B|.

Front

If 39 senior boys play football or wrestle, and 9 play both, how many play only football or only wrestle?

Back

To find the number of students who play only football or only wrestle, subtract the number who play both from the total: 39 - 9 = 30.
