A Venn diagram is a visual tool used to represent the relationship between sets. It consists of one or more circles that overlap or intersect, with each circle representing a specific set. The overlapping regions show where sets have elements in common, while the non-overlapping parts display elements unique to each set. The circles are enclosed inside a rectangle which represents the universal set.
For example, consider the universal set containing positive integers less than 10, and consider two sets: Set A, which contains even numbers, and Set B, which contains multiples of 3.
A Venn diagram for these sets would have one circle representing even numbers and another circle representing multiples of 3. The overlapping section would represent numbers that are both even and multiples of 3, which in this case is 6. The other numbers that are neither even numbers nor multiples of 3 are placed within the rectangle but outside the circles.
