V. Proving/Disproving:
1. a) Suppose A, B and C are sets. What do you need to show to prove the following using the
definition of a subset:
(((BNA) – C) U ((BnC) – A)) C (BUA)
|
b) Use the definition of subset to prove:
If A, B and C are sets then ((BNA) – C) U ((BnC) – A)) c (B U A).
Note: Provide a justification for each line of your proof. You are not allowed to use the
properties of set operations. You may only use the definition of set operations and the
rules of inference to justify the lines of your proof.
