Part 1:
Shade the region of the Venn Diagram indicated by the following sets.

(i) A B (ii) A B

C C

Shade: (A’ B)  C (A  B)’  C

(iii) A B (iv) A B

C C

Shade: A  (C’  B) (A  B’)  C

(v) A B (vi) A B

C C

Shade: A’  (C’  B) (A  B’)’  C

Part II: Write down the elements in the following sets.

Let U = {0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10}; A = {0,1,2,3,5,8}; B={0,2,4,6}; C = {1,3,5,7}

i) A  B =

ii) B’ =

iii) A  B’ =

iv) B  C =

v) B  C’ =

vi) A’  C =

vii) (A’  C)  B =

viii) (AB)’ =

ix) (A  C)  B

x) Write down a subset of A =

What set notation would you use to represent the following regions? (I.e. if those regions
were shaded, what set notation would you use to identify the shaded region). Hint – make
a separate sketch for each.

Example: Region 3 could be written as A  B

i) Region 1,2 and 4 (i.e. imagine all region 1, 2 and 4 were shaded):

ii) Region 2 only:

iii) Region 1 only:

iv) Region 1 and 4:
