In a Venn diagram, the shaded region is inside A and outside B. How is it represented?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: A − B
The difference A − B consists of all elements that belong to A but do not belong to B. In a Venn diagram, this is the portion of circle A excluding the common overlap with circle B. A ∩ B represents the shared region, B − A represents the part only in B, and A ∪ B represents everything in either set. Hence option A is correct.
