The union A ∪ B is the set of all elements that are in:

Answer: in A or B or in both.

  • A in A or B or in both
  • B only in both A and B
  • C in A but not in B
  • D in neither A nor B

Correct answer: A. in A or B or in both

Explanation: A ∪ B contains every element belonging to A, to B, or to both.

Set Operations: Union, Intersection, ComplementUABA∩BOutside both circles = (A∪B)' = A'∩B' (De Morgan)A∪B = everything in either circle; A∩B = only the overlap

A Venn diagram makes set identities visual: A∪B is everything inside either circle, A∩B is only the overlap, and the region outside both circles represents the complement of their union - directly illustrating De Morgan's law (A∪B)′ = A′∩B′.
