We can represents sets visually using Venn diagrams. A Venn diagram consists of a universal set U represented by a rectangle, and sets within it that are generally represented by circles. For A = {1, 4, 8} and U = {1, 2,3, 4, 5, 6, 7,8, 9}, the Venn diagram is: The complement of a set A is represented by the region outside the circle which represents A. If A is a subset of B, we place a circle representing A completely within the circle representing B. Every element of A is also an element of B. The intersection of two sets A and B is represented by the region where the circles representing A and B overlap. Elements in this region are elements of both Aand B. The union of two sets A and B is represented by the region inside one or both of the circles representing A and B. Elements in this region are elements of either A or B. pANB be &
