  2. Chain rule (probability) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chain_rule_(probability)

    Let event be the chance we choose a white ball. The chance of choosing a white ball, given that we have chosen the first urn, is (|) = / The intersection then describes choosing the first urn and a white ball from it. The probability can be calculated by the chain rule as follows:

  3. Intersection (set theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intersection_(set_theory)

    In set theory, the intersection of two sets and , denoted by , [1] is the set containing all elements of that also belong to or equivalently, all elements of that also belong to . [2] Notation and terminology

  4. Line–line intersection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line–line_intersection

    Assume that we want to find intersection of two infinite lines in 2-dimensional space, defined as a 1 x + b 1 y + c 1 = 0 and a 2 x + b 2 y + c 2 = 0. We can represent these two lines in line coordinates as U 1 = (a 1, b 1, c 1) and U 2 = (a 2, b 2, c 2). The intersection P′ of two lines is then simply given by [4]

  5. Venn diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Venn_diagram

    The combined region of the two sets is called their union, denoted by A ∪ B, where A is the orange circle and B the blue. The union in this case contains all living creatures that either are two-legged or can fly (or both). The region included in both A and B, where the two sets overlap, is called the intersection of A and B, denoted by A ∩ B.

  6. Inclusion–exclusion principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inclusion–exclusion...

    The formula expresses the fact that the sum of the sizes of the two sets may be too large since some elements may be counted twice. The double-counted elements are those in the intersection of the two sets and the count is corrected by subtracting the size of the intersection.

  7. Union (set theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Union_(set_theory)

    Intersection (set theory) – Set of elements common to all of some sets; Iterated binary operation – Repeated application of an operation to a sequence; List of set identities and relations – Equalities for combinations of sets; Naive set theory – Informal set theories; Symmetric difference – Elements in exactly one of two sets

  8. Probability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Probability

    A probability is a way of assigning every event a value between zero and one, with the requirement that the event made up of all possible results (in our example, the event {1,2,3,4,5,6}) is assigned a value of one. To qualify as a probability, the assignment of values must satisfy the requirement that for any collection of mutually exclusive ...

  9. Disjoint sets - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disjoint_sets

    Two disjoint sets. In set theory in mathematics and formal logic, two sets are said to be disjoint sets if they have no element in common. Equivalently, two disjoint sets are sets whose intersection is the empty set. [1] For example, {1, 2, 3} and {4, 5, 6} are disjoint sets, while {1, 2, 3} and {3, 4, 5} are not disjoint. A collection of two ...
