Question

How is this represented using a Venn diagram?
Shirt, Collar, Pocket

• A.

  

• B.

  

• C.

  

• D.

  

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

To represent the relationships between "Shirt," "Collar," and "Pocket" using a Venn diagram, we need to consider their hierarchical and functional relationships:

1. Identify the Relationship: A shirt can contain both a collar and a pocket, making the shirt the universal set that includes both the collar and the pocket as its subsets.
2. Determine Overlap: In terms of functionality, the collar and pocket are separate parts of the shirt and do not overlap each other. Thus, they should not overlap in the Venn diagram.
3. Visualize the Venn Diagram: The best representation will have a large circle (representing the shirt) that fully contains two smaller, non-overlapping circles (representing the collar and the pocket).

Based on these points, the correct Venn diagram should have:

• A large circle labeled "Shirt."
• Two smaller circles within the "Shirt" circle, labeled "Collar" and "Pocket," which do not overlap with each other.

The following Venn diagram correctly represents this arrangement:

Conclusion: The correct Venn diagram is the one that presents "Collar" and "Pocket" as distinct subsets within the larger set "Shirt," without overlap. This corresponds to the third option shown in the images provided.
