Distinguish between equal sets which have exactly the same members and equivalent sets that may have different members but must have the same cardinality or size.

A Venn diagram is a graphical representation of the relationship between sets.

In a Venn diagram, the universal set,UUis the largest set under consideration and is drawn as a rectangle. All subsets of the universal set are drawn as circles within this rectangle.

The complement of setAAincludes all the members of the universal set that are not in setAA. A set and its complement are disjoint sets, they do not share any elements in common.
https://openstax.org/books/contemporary-mathematics/pages/1-key-concepts
To find the complement of setAAremove all the elements of setAAfrom the universal setUU, the set that includes only the remaining elements is the complement of setAA,A′A′.
