If A and B are two sets,

Question:

If A and B are two sets, then ((A' ∪ B') – A)' is equal to ____________.

Solution:

For sets A and B, ((A' ⋃ B') – A)'

= ((A' ⋃ B') ∩ A')'        

= ((A ∩ B)' ∩ A') '            (using De-Morgan's Law)

= (((A ∩ B)' )' ⋃ (A')')      (using De-Morgan's Law)

= ((A ∩ B) ⋃ A)

A

i.e ((A' ⋃ B') – A)' = A
