Math Problem Statement
Given the set, shade the indicated region. Show your solution in the answer sheet.
a) A intersection B to the power of apostrophe
Venn diagram 01
Solution
To solve this, let's analyze the given statement:
A ∩ B' (A intersection B') means:
- The elements must belong to A.
- The elements must NOT belong to B (B', or "B complement," is the set of elements outside B).
Solution Approach:
- Draw two overlapping circles representing sets A and B within a rectangle representing the universal set.
- Identify the region that represents A (inside the circle of A).
- Exclude the portion where A and B overlap (since we need to exclude B's region). The remaining part of A (outside the overlap with B) is A ∩ B'.
Venn Diagram Description:
The final shaded region will be the part of A that does not overlap with B. This is the "crescent-shaped" portion of A outside of B.
