A Venn diagram is a diagram representing mathematical or logical sets pictorially as circles or closed curves
within an enclosing rectangle (the universal set).
The universal set, denoted by U, is the set that contains all the elements or objects involved in the problem under
consideration; "all other sets are subsets of the universal set.
The complement of a set A, written as A or AC, is the set of all the elements in the universal set U that are not in
the set A.
Given: U = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}, A = {1, 3, 5}. Find A
Answer: A = {2, 4, 6}
Graphic representation of set A
Graphic representation of complement of set A
