2. Venn diagram - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Venn_diagram

   v. t. e. A Venn diagram is a widely used diagram style that shows the logical relation between sets, popularized by John Venn (1834–1923) in the 1880s. The diagrams are used to teach elementary set theory, and to illustrate simple set relationships in probability, logic, statistics, linguistics and computer science.

3. Borromean rings - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borromean_rings

   The commonly-used diagram for the Borromean rings consists of three equal circles centered at the points of an equilateral triangle, close enough together that their interiors have a common intersection (such as in a Venn diagram or the three circles used to define the Reuleaux triangle).

4. Euler diagram - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler_diagram

   Venn diagrams are a more restrictive form of Euler diagrams. A Venn diagram must contain all 2 n logically possible zones of overlap between its n curves, representing all combinations of inclusion/exclusion of its constituent sets. Regions not part of the set are indicated by coloring them black, in contrast to Euler diagrams, where membership ...

   Mathematics is a field of study that discovers and organizes methods, theories and theorems that are developed and proved for the needs of empirical sciences and mathematics itself. There are many areas of mathematics, which include number theory (the study of numbers), algebra (the study of formulas and related structures), geometry (the study ...

6. Intersection (set theory) - Wikipedia

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

   The intersection of A and B is the set A ∩ B of elements that lie in both set A and set B . Symbolic statement. A ∩ B = {x: x ∈ A and x ∈ B} 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.

7. Set (mathematics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Set_(mathematics)

   A set of polygons in an Euler diagram This set equals the one depicted above since both have the very same elements.. In mathematics, a set is a collection of different [1] things; [2] [3] [4] these things are called elements or members of the set and are typically mathematical objects of any kind: numbers, symbols, points in space, lines, other geometrical shapes, variables, or even other ...
