Question
Prove the following statement. Assume that all sets are subsets of a universal set U.
For all sets A and B, if
Ac ⊆ B
then
A ∪ B = U.
Hint: Once you have assumed that A and B are any sets with
Ac ⊆ B,
which of the following must you show to be true in order to deduce the set equality in the conclusion of the given statement? (Select all that apply.)A ∩ B ⊆ U
U ⊆ A ∪ B
A ∪ B ⊆ U
U ⊆ A ∩ B
