Thread: [SOLVED] Proofs

Prove the following:

1. For all set A and B, A c A U B

2. For all sets A and B, A U B c A ∩ B

3. For all set A and B, A - B = A ∩ B

4. For all sets A and B, if A c B, then B c A

5. For all sets A, B, and C, A-(B U C) = (A - B) ∩ (A - C)

For all x in A x is of necessity in (A union B), by definition of union.

You may worry that this does not work if A is the null set, but as the
null set is a subset of every set the result still holds (and you don't really
need to so worry).
