Question

For any two sets A and B, prove that $\text{(A}-\text{B)}\cup(\text{B}\cap\text{A})=\text{A}$

✓

Answer

Let $\text{x}\in\text{A.}$ Then either $\text{x} \in \text{(A}- \text{B) or x} \in \text{(A}\cap \text{B})$ $\Rightarrow \text{x}\in\text{(A – B)}\cup \text{(A} \cap\text{B})$ $\therefore\text{A} \subset \text{(A – B)}\cup \text{(A}\cap\text{B}).....\text{(i)}$ Conversely, Let $\text{x}\in\text{(A} - \text{B)} \cup \text{(A}\cap\text{B)}$ $\Rightarrow\text{x} \in \text{(A – B) or x (A} \cap \text{B})$ $\Rightarrow\text{x} \in \text{A and x}\not\in\text{B or x}\in \text{A and x} \in\text{B}$ $\Rightarrow \text{x} \in \text{A}$ $\therefore\text{(A} - \text{B)}\cup\text{(A} \cap \text{B}) \subset \text{A}.....\text{(ii)}$ From (i) and (ii), we get $\text{(A} - \text{B)}\cup\text{(A} \cap \text{B) = A}.$
