- If A’ = {1, 2, 3, 4}, U = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8}, find A in U and draw Venn diagram
Solution:
A’ = {5, 6, 7, 8}
- If U = {x/x € 25, x€N}. A = {x/x € U, x ≤ 15} and B = {x/x € U, 0 < x ≤ 25}, list the elements of the following sets and draw Venn diagram:
(i) A’ in U:
(ii) B’ in U
(iii) A\B;
(iv) A Δ B
Solution:
U = {1, 2, 3, 4 ……….25}
A = {1, 2, 3, 4……….15}
B = {1, 2, 3 ….25}
(i) A’ = {16, 17, 18, 19….25}
(ii) B’ = { }
(iii) A\B = { }
(iv) A Δ B = A \ B U B \ A
= { } U {16, 17, 18… 25}
= {16, 17, 18 …..25}
- Let A and B subsets of a set U. Identify the wrong statements:
(i) (A’)’ = A
(ii) A \ B = B \ A
(iii) A U A’ = U
(iv) A Δ B = B Δ A
(v) (A \ B)’ = A’ \ B’
Solution:
If U = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9}
A = {1, 3, 5, 7, 9} and B = {2, 4, 6, 8, 9}
(i) (A’)’ = {2, 4, 6, 8}
(A’)’ = {1, 3, 5, 7, 9} = A
(A’)’ = A
(ii) A \ B = {1, 3, 5, 7}
B \ A = {2, 4, 6, 8}
We see that A \ B ≠ B \ A
(iii) A U A’ = {1, 3, 5, 7, 9} U {2, 4, 6, 8}
= {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9}
= U
A U A’ = U
(iv) A Δ B =(A \ B) U (B \ A)
= {1, 3, 5, 7} U {2, 4, 6, 8}
= {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8}
B Δ A = (B \ A) U (A \ B)
= {2, 4, 6, 8} U {1, 3, 5, 7}
= {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8}
A Δ B = B Δ A
(v) A \ B = {1, 3, 5, 7}
(A \ B)’ = {2, 4, 6, 8, 9}
A’ = {2, 4, 6, 8} and B’ = {1, 3, 5, 7}
A’ \ B’ = {2, 4, 6, 8}
Hence (A \ B)’ ≠ A’ \ B’

(i) A’
(ii) B’
(iii) C’
(iv) (A’)’
(v) (B’)’
(iv) (C’)’
Solution:
(i) A’ = {7, 8, 10, 11, 12, 13}
(ii) B’ = {4, 6, 8, 10, 11, 12, 13}
(iii) C’ = {3, 4, 5, 9, 11, 13}
(iv) A’ = {7, 8, 10, 11, 12, 13}
(A’)’ = {3, 4, 5, 6, 9} = A
(v) (B’)’ = B’ = {4, 6, 8, 10, 11, 12, 13}
(B’)’ = {3, 7, 9, 5} = B
(vi) (C’)’ = {3, 4, 5, 9, 11, 13}
(C’)’ = {6, 8, 10, 12, 7} = C
5. Suppose U = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9}, A = {1, 2, 3, 4} and B = {2, 4, 6, 8}, write down the following sets and draw Venn diagram.
(i) A’
(ii) B’
(iii) A U B
(iv) A ∩ B (v) (A U B)’ (vi) (A ∩B)’
How (A UB)’ is related to A’ and B’? What relation you see between
(A ∩ B)’ and A’ and B’
Solution:
(i) A’ = {5, 6, 7, 8, 9}
(ii) B’ = {1, 3, 5, 7, 9}
(iii) A U B = {1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8}
(iv) A ∩ B = {2, 4}
(v) (A UB)’
(A U B) = {1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8}
(A U B)’ = {5, 7, 9}
vi) (A ∩ B)’
(A ∩ B) = {2, 4}
(A ∩ B)’ = {1, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8}
We see that (A U B)’ = A’ ∩ B’
(A ∩ B)’ = A’ U B’
