De Morgan’s laws also apply to sets.

 

De Morgan’s laws

 

(A U B)’ =  A’ ∩ B’

(A ∩ B)’ =  A’ U B’

 

Prove the following using set identities, including De Morgan’s laws

 

A – (A – B) = A ∩ B

 

Expert Solution
Step 1: Introduction

Given equation to prove:

A – (A – B) = A ∩ B

Given 

De Morgan’s laws

(A U B)’ =  A’ ∩ B’

(A ∩ B)’ =  A’ U B’

We need to prove this equation using set identities, including De Morgan’s laws.
