Detailed explanation-1: -The intersection operation is denoted by the symbol ∩. The set A ∩ B-read “A intersection B” or “the intersection of A and B”-is defined as the set composed of all elements that belong to both A and B. Thus, the intersection of the two committees in the foregoing example is the set consisting of Blanshard and Hixon.

Detailed explanation-2: -∩ The symbol ∩ means intersection. Given two sets S and T, S ∩ T is used to denote the set x|x ∈ S and x ∈ T. For example 1, 2, 3∩3, 4, 5 = 3.

Detailed explanation-3: -The symbol used to denote the intersection of sets A and B is ∩, it is written as A∩B and read as ‘A intersection B’. The intersection of two or more sets is the set of elements that are common to every set. A∩B can be determined easily by checking the elements that are present in both A and B.

Detailed explanation-4: -Intersections. An element is in the intersection of two sets if it is in the first set and it is in the second set. The symbol we use for the intersection is ∩. The word that you will often see that indicates an intersection is “and".

Detailed explanation-5: -For any two sets A and B, the intersection, A ∩ B (read as A intersection B) lists all the elements that are present in both sets, and are the common elements of A and B. For example, if Set A = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and Set B = 3, 4, 6, 8, A ∩ B = 3, 4.
