IDEMPOTENT LAW

A u A= A. A n A= A.

BASIC KNOWLEDGE:
1.Identity law of intersection. 2.Complement law of union. 3.Distributive law of union over intersection. 4.Complement law of intersection. 5.Identity law of union. 6.Complement law for intersection. 7.Distributive law for intersection over union.

PROOF:
CASE 1: UNION A u A= (A u A) n U. =(A u A) n (A u A) =A u (A n A) =A u =A By the identity law of intersection. By the complement law of union. By the distributive law of union over intersection. By the complement law of intersection. By the identity law of union.

CASE 2: INTERSECTION.

A n A= (A u A) u =(A n A) u (A n A) =A n(A u A) =A n U. =A

By the identity law for union. By the complement law for intersection. By the distributive law for intersection over union. By the complement law for union. By the identity law for intersection.

PROOF USING VENN DIAGRAM.


UNION:

A 1 A2 3 1 A2 3

A 1 2 3 =A u A.

INTERSECTION:

B B 4

B
5 6 4 5 6

=B n B.
