A ⊆ B  ⇒ B=A ∪ (A′ ∩ B)  ..........∗∗∗.......................  A ⊆ B  ⇒A∪B=B  Or   B=A∪B           =U∩(A∪B)     [∵ S=U∩S]           =(A∪A′)∩(A∪B)  [∵U=A∪A′]            =A∪(A′∩B)    [∵ (A∪B)∩(A∪C)                                                =A∪(B∩C)]
ABB=A(AB)...ABAB=BOrB=AB=U(AB)[S=US]=(AA)(AB)[U=AA]=A(AB)[(AB)(AC)=A(BC)]

A ⊆ B  ⇒ B=A ∪ (A′ ∩ B)  RHS: A ∪ (A′ ∩ B)=(A∪A′)∩(A∪B)           [ Distributivity of   ∪   over   ∩  ]                            =U∩(A∪B)     [ A∪A′=U ]                            =A∪B          [ U ∩ S=S ]                            =B                [ ∵ A⊆B  ]                            =LHS
ABB=A(AB)RHS:A(AB)=(AA)(AB)[Distributivityofover]=U(AB)[AA=U]=AB[US=S]=B[AB]=LHS
