Solution

Let’s analyze the question from the uploaded image:

Problem:

We are asked to find (CB)A(C \cup B) \cap A' using the given Venn diagram. The notation and symbols mean the following:

  • CBC \cup B: The union of sets CC and BB, which includes all elements belonging to either CC or BB.
  • AA': The complement of set AA, which includes all elements not in AA.
  • (CB)A(C \cup B) \cap A': The intersection of CBC \cup B and AA', i.e., the elements that are in both CBC \cup B and AA'.

Step-by-Step Solution:

  1. Identify CBC \cup B: From the Venn diagram, CBC \cup B includes all elements in either set CC or BB. These elements are:

    • p,q,s,t,x,y,g,hp, q, s, t, x, y, g, h.
  2. Identify AA': The complement of AA, AA', includes all elements not in AA. From the diagram, AA' contains:

    • p,q,g,hp, q, g, h.
  3. Find the intersection (CB)A(C \cup B) \cap A': Now, we find the common elements between CBC \cup B and AA'. The elements shared between {p,q,s,t,x,y,g,h}\{p, q, s, t, x, y, g, h\} (from CBC \cup B) and {p,q,g,h}\{p, q, g, h\} (from AA') are:

    • p,q,g,hp, q, g, h.

Final Answer:

The result of (CB)A(C \cup B) \cap A' is: {p,q,g,h}\{ p, q, g, h \}

Tip:

When working with Venn diagrams, label all sets carefully and shade regions corresponding to unions, intersections, and complements. This helps in avoiding errors during calculations!
