Precalculus intersectoin, union, universal etc

AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around a precalculus problem involving set operations, specifically the intersection and union of sets. Participants emphasize that without knowing the specific sets A, B, and C, it is impossible to solve the equation (A∪B)' ∩ C or (A∩B)' ∩ C. One user expresses frustration at perceived rudeness while seeking help, but others clarify that more information is needed to provide assistance. The conversation highlights the importance of defining the sets involved in set theory problems. Clear communication of the problem's parameters is essential for effective problem-solving.

You do understand that we can't possibly tell you what (A\cupB)' cap[\itex] C is without knowing what A, B, C are don't you?

hes not being rude, he is just telling you that you need to advise us what A, B and C are :)
 
I picked up this problem from the Schaum's series book titled "College Mathematics" by Ayres/Schmidt. It is a solved problem in the book. But what surprised me was that the solution to this problem was given in one line without any explanation. I could, therefore, not understand how the given one-line solution was reached. The one-line solution in the book says: The equation is ##x \cos{\omega} +y \sin{\omega} - 5 = 0##, ##\omega## being the parameter. From my side, the only thing I could...
