MHB Shaded region in terms of set notation

Click For Summary
The shaded region in set notation is expressed as the difference between sets, specifically as B - A. This indicates the elements that are in set B but not in set A. An equivalent expression for this relationship is B ∩ A', where A' represents the complement of set A. Understanding these notations is crucial for accurately describing set relationships. Proper use of set notation clarifies the distinctions between different sets.

It's the things which are in $B$ but not in $A$. So it is $B-A$.
 


An equivalent statement: B \cap A'
