| The union of two sets, A and B, is the set consisting
of all elements belonging to either set. |
| For example, |
A = {1,2,3}, B = {2,3,4,5}. Then A U B = {1,2,3,4,5} |
A is the square, B is
the line segment, both together are the union A U B |
 |
A is the gasket, B is
the line segment, both together are the union A U B |
