Venn Diagram
Venn diagrams
were introduced
in 1880 by John
Venn.
A Venn diagram
is an illustration
of the
relationships
between and
among sets.

ON SET
Union Set
The union of sets A and B (denoted by A ∪B) is
the set of elements which are in A, in B, or in
both A and B.
Note: Common elements occur only once.
A B
Example 1:
10
A={10,11,12,13} 14
13
11
B = {13,14,15}
12 15
A∪B={10,11,12,13,14,15}
A B
Example 2:
5
4
A={1,2, 3, 4, 5} 1 6
2
B = {2, 4, 6} 3
A∪B={1, 2, 3, 4, 5}
A B
Example 3:
f
A={f, i, t, s} t
r u
B = {f, r, u, i, t} s
i
A∪B={f, r, u, i, t}
Union Set
The intersection of sets A and B (denoted
by A∩B) is the set of elements which are in
both A and B.
A B
Example 1: 10 14
A={10,11,12,13} 11
13
15
B = {13,14,15} 12
A ∩ B={13}
A B
Example 2: 1
A={1, 2, 3, 4, 5} 3 2
6
B = {2, 4, 6} 5 4
A ∩ B={2, 4}
A B
Example 3:
f r
A={f, i, t, s} i
s
B = {f, r, u, i, t} t u
A ∩ B={f, i, t}
Set Difference/ Relative Complement
The set difference of sets A and B (denoted
by A–B) is the set of elements which are only in
A but not in B.
Example 1: A B
A={10,11,12,13} 10 14
B = {13,14,15} 11
13
12 15
A–B={10, 11, 12}
B–A={14, 15}
A B
Example 2:
1
A={1, 2, 3, 4, 5} 3 2
6
B={2, 4, 6} 5 4
A-B={1, 3, 5}
A B
Example 3:
1
A={1, 2, 3, 4, 5} 3 2
6
B={2, 4, 6} 5 4
B-A={6}
B
Example 4: A
f
A={f, i, t, s} r
s i
B= {f, r, u, i, t}
t u
A- B={f, i, t}
A B
Example 5:
f r
A={f, i, t, s}
s i
B= {f, r, u, i, t} t u
B- A={r, u}
Complement of a Set
The complement of a set A (denoted by A′) is
the set of elements which are not in set A.
Example 1: U
A’ A
U = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}
1 5 6
A = {1, 3, 5} 2 3
A' = {2, 4, 6} 4
Example 2: U
A’ A
U = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9} 1 5 6
A = {1, 3, 5, 7, 9} 2 3
A' = {2, 4, 6, 8} 4
U
Example 3: A’
A
6
U = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6} 2
3
A = {2, 3, 4}
4
A' = {1, 5, 6} 1 5
