Question 1

What formula would you use to find the number of elements in |A ∪ B|?

  • |A| + |B|
  • |A| + |B| - |A ∩ B|
  • |A| - |B|

💡 Hint: Remember why we subtract the intersection!

Question 2

True or False: The principle of inclusion-exclusion can be applied to more than two sets.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Think about how we can add more elements.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

You have three sets: A has 5 elements, B has 3 elements, and C has 4. The intersections are |A ∩ B| = 2, |A ∩ C| = 1, |B ∩ C| = 1 and |A ∩ B ∩ C| = 0. Calculate |A ∪ B ∪ C|.

💡 Hint: Follow the inclusion-exclusion steps carefully.

Question 2

Draw a Venn diagram for two sets A and B with |A|=6, |B|=4, and |A ∩ B|=2. Label the individual regions.

💡 Hint: Consider each section of the diagram and how they relate.
