This is called the complement of the set.
a set of which all the elements are contained in another set.
It is the set of all elements we are considering or dealing with in a given problem. We use a capital U or sometimes capital E to mean the universal set. Now take ANY two sets, A and B. If every single element of set A is contained in set B, we say A is a subset of B. The empty set is a subset of every set. Every set in contained in the universal set, so they are all subset of it.
If the set has n elements then it has 2n subsets.
An equivalence relation on a set is one that is transitive, reflexive and symmetric. Given a set A with n elements, the largest equivalence relation is AXA since it has n2 elements. Given any element a of the set, the smallest equivalence relation is (a,a) which has n elements.

A subset of some set X is, by definition, any set whose elements are entirely contained in X. So the answer is yes. As an example, take your infinite set, and select 3 or 10 or any finite number of your favorite elements in this set. The set of your chosen elements is a finite subset of the infinite set.
union means to group the given sets. where as intersection means to pick out the common elements from the given sets. if set a has 1,2,3 elements and B has 1,2,3,4,5. then its union will have 1,2,3,4,5 as its elements. and its intersection will have 1,2,3 as its elements.
A subset of a given set is simply any set, all of whose elements are contained in the other. Since the empty set has no elements, all of its elements are in any other set! It sounds weird, but that's the way logic works. To put it another way, a set A is NOT a subset of B if there is some element x of A that is not in B. Since the empty set has no elements that are not in your given set, we can't say it is NOT a subset. That means that it is. To select a subset, we must look at each member of the set and decide whether to keep it. If we say "yes" to every member, we have the set itself; if we say "no" to all of them, we have the empty set. We could choose to exclude these from the definition of subset, but it makes a lot of things easier if we include them. That way there are no special cases to deal with when we state theorems.
An absolute complement is the set which includes exactly the elements belonging to the universal set but not to a given set.
A set of which all the elements are contained in another set. The set of even numbers is a subset of the set of integers.
The set contained in another set is termed as a sub-set.
A set is a collection of well defined objects known as elements Opperatons of sets are 1)union - the union of sets A and B is the set that contains all elements in A and all elements in B. intersection - given two sets A and B, the intersection of A and B is a set that contains all elements in common between A and B. compliments - given set A, A compliment is the set of all elements in the universal set but not in A difference - A-B is a set containing all elements in A that are not in B. symmetric difference - it is the sum of A and B minus A intersection B.
