When A ∪ B is shaded in a Venn diagram, which part remains unshaded?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: (A ∪ B)'
The union A ∪ B includes every element belonging to A, to B, or to both. Thus the two circles, including their overlap, are shaded. The only region left unshaded inside U is outside both circles, which is the complement (A ∪ B)'. Hence option D is correct.
