(c) #(

(d) The size of the union of A and B is by definition the number of its elements. That is the
number of elements in space I plus the number of elements in space II plus the number of
elements in space III (Shape 1 and 2). If we add the size of set A to the size of set B we are
considering the number of elements in space II twice. Thus:
#A + #B = (I + II + III) + II
, where I,II,III denote the number of elements in the respected spaces.
=> #A + #B = #(
) + II
, but the space II is the intersection of A and B and thus the number of
its elements = # (
)
=> #A + #B = #(
) +#(
)
=> #(
) = #A + #B #(
).

Claim:
sin(A B) = sinAcosB cosAsinB
Proof:
sin X = cos(/2 )
=> sin (A B) = cos (/2 ( ))
= cos ((/2 ) ( - ))
= cos (/2 ) cos ( - B) + sin (/2 ) sin ( - B )
= cos (/2 ) cosB sin (/2 ) sin B
= sin A cos B cos A sin B
