VENN DIAGRAM
Graphical way of presenting the
relationships between sets. The set is
represented by a closed curve. The
region inside the curve represents the
element that belongs to the set, while
the region outside the curve represents
the elements that are excluded from the
set.
VENN DIAGRAM
Union of Events
- an event that has happened and is always associated with an experiment
- consist of elements belonging to event A, event B or both A and B
- written as (A U B) “A or B”
VENN DIAGRAM
Intersection of Events
- Events are occurring together
- Consist of all elements in event A and event B at the same time
- written as (A ∩ B) “A and B”
VENN DIAGRAM
Union
the blending of both sets (indicates
“or” ) with mathematical symbol U
Intersection
when the two sets overlap
