Which of the following are correct in case of theory of sets.

  1. (A ∪ B′) ∩ (A′ ∪ C) ∩ (B ∪ C′) = (A ∩ B ∩ C) ∪ (A ∪ B ∪ C)
  2. (A ∪ B′) ∩ (A′ ∪ C) ∩ (B ∪ C′) = (A ∩ B ∩ C) ∪ (A ∪ B ∪ C)′
  3. A ∪ (B ∩ C) = (A ∪ B) ∩ (A ∪ C)
  4. A ∩ (B ∪ C) = (A ∪ B) ∩ (A ∪ C)
  5. (A ∪ B′) ∩ (A′ ∪ C) ∩ (B ∪ C′) = (A ∩ B ∩ C) ∪ (A′ ∩ B′ ∩ C′)

Answer and explanation

Correct answer C

The three clauses on the left imply A⇒C⇒B⇒A, so membership is possible only when all three indicators are 1 or all are 0. Thus the expression is (A∩B∩C)∪(A′∩B′∩C′), validating B and E by De Morgan’s law. C is the distributive law. A incorrectly includes every member of the union; D incorrectly substitutes a union-type distribution for intersection. The correct set is B, C and E.
