Identify the correct statement
Options
- AA A^ =
- B(A B)^ =A^ B^
- CA B B^ A^
- DA-B=A^ B
Correct answer
C. A B B^ A^
Step-by-step solution
Analyze each option based on set theory principles. Option (1): A A^ = U , where U is the universal set. Thus, A A^ = is false. Option (2): According to De Morgan's Law, (A B)^ = A^ B^ . Thus, (A B)^ = A^ B^ is false. Option (3): If A B , then every element of A is an element of B . Consequently, any element not in B must also not be in A . This implies B^ A^ . This statement is true. Option (4): The set difference A - B is defined as A B^ . The statement A - B = A^ B is false. Answer: A B B^ A^
