1. The union of two sets A and B are said to be contained elements that
are either in set A and set B. The union of A and B is denoted as: A∪BA∪B.
2. The intersection of two sets A and B are said to be contained
elements that are common in both the sets. The intersection of A and B is
denoted as: A∩BA∩B.
3. The complement of a set A is the set of all elements given in the
universal set U that are not contained in A. The complement of A is denoted
as A′A′.
4. For any two sets A and B, the following holds true:
o (i) (A∪B)′=A′∩B′(A∪B)′=A′∩B′
o (ii) (A∩B)′=A′∪B′(A∩B)′=A′∪B′
5. If the finite sets A and B are given such that (A∩B)=ϕ(A∩B)=ϕ,
then: n(A∪B)=n(A)+n(B)n(A∪B)=n(A)+n(B)
6. If (A∪B)=ϕ(A∪B)=ϕ, then: n(A∪B)=n(A)+n(B)−n(A∩B)n(A∪B)=n(A)
+n(B)−n(A∩B)
