Manipulating Unions and Intersections

 

The important rules tex2html_wrap_inline298   and tex2html_wrap_inline300 are known as DeMorgan's Laws. These rules also extend to arbitrary unions and intersections as tex2html_wrap_inline302 and tex2html_wrap_inline304  

In manipulating expressions involving set operations it is often convenient to distribute one set operation over another. Specifically we have tex2html_wrap_inline306  and tex2html_wrap_inline308
