DISJOINT OF TWO SETS

DISJOINT OF TWO SETS

Two sets E & F are called Disjoint Set if they have no elements in common, that is E ∩ F = φ

Example –

Let, E = { x : x is a positive integers } and F = { x : x is a negative integers }

Then E =  { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, ………… }  and  F = { -1, -2, -3, -4, -5, …………. }   

Then E ∩ F = { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, ………… } ∩ { -1, -2, -3, -4, -5, …………. } 

             =    φ

So, E & F are disjoint set.
