- Card 1HintThink of a group with unique items.Memory TipSets are like groups, no repeats allowed!
- Card 2HintUses circles to show relationships.Memory TipCircles show sets, overlaps show shared elements.
- Card 3HintA smaller set inside a bigger one.Memory TipSubset: smaller set inside.
- Card 4HintCombining all elements.Memory TipUnion: United, includes everything!
- Card 5HintElements they have in common.Memory TipIntersection: Common elements only.
- Card 6HintA has it, but B doesn't.Memory TipDifference: What A has uniquely.
- Card 7HintAll combinations, count the empty set.Memory TipPower Set: all possible subsets
- Card 8HintOrder doesn't matterMemory TipCommutative; Union: Order is irrelevant.
- Card 9HintGrouping doesn't matterMemory TipAssociative Union: Grouping irrelevant.
- Card 10HintUnion over intersection.Memory TipDistributive: separate and combine.
- Card 11HintComplement swaps union and intersection.Memory TipDeMorgan: Break the line, change the sign
