Conduct a survey on a topic of your choice (e.g .fruit ) with 3 examples ( e.g.
grape, kiwi, strawberry ) on two options 9 e.g. whether they like/dislike the fruit ).
The sample should consists of more than 20 but fewer than 40 respondents.
Collects the required information using a simple questionnaire form. Represents
the information using a Venn diagram , using the symbols A, B, C to represents
the set of examples and E to represents the universal set .Answer the following
questions based on your Venn diagram.
Find :
(i) (a) n (E)
(b) n(A U B U C) (c) n(A n B n C) (d) n(A n Bn C)
(e) n((A U C) B)
(ii) Shade the region represented by (A n B) U (A n B).
(iii) By using algebraic law of sets, prove that
(A n B) U (A n B) = (A U B) n (A u B)
E = SPORTS
A = FOOTBALL
B = PING PONG
C = RUGBY

SOLUTION:
(A n B) U (A n B) = (A U B) n (A U B)
Left hand side = (A n B) U (A n B)
= [ (A U A) n (A U B)] n [ (B U A) n (B U B) ]
= [ E n (A U B) ] n [ (B U A) n E ]
= ( A U B) n ( A U B ) .proven
