Answer
# Explanation:
## Step1: Recall set - notation meaning
$A\cap B'$ means elements in $A$ but not in $B$. To sketch, first draw two overlapping circles representing sets $A$ and $B$. Shade the part of $A$ that does not overlap with $B$.
## Step2: For $A'\cap B'$
$A'\cap B'$ means elements that are neither in $A$ nor in $B$. Shade the area outside both $A$ and $B$ in the universal - set rectangle.
## Step3: For $A'\cup B$
$A'\cup B$ means elements that are either not in $A$ or in $B$. Shade the area outside $A$ and the entire area of $B$.
## Step4: For $A\cup B'$
$A\cup B'$ means elements that are either in $A$ or not in $B$. Shade the entire area of $A$ and the area outside $B$.
## Step5: For $A\cap B'\cup C$
First, find $A\cap B'$ (shade part of $A$ not in $B$ as before). Then, take the union with $C$, so shade the area of $C$ along with the previously shaded $A\cap B'$ area.
## Step6: For $A\cap B\cup C'$
First, find $A\cap B$ (shade the overlapping part of $A$ and $B$). Then, take the union with $C'$, so shade the area outside $C$ along with the previously shaded $A\cap B$ area.
# Answer:
1. Shade the part of $A$ that does not overlap with $B$.
2. Shade the area outside both $A$ and $B$ in the universal - set rectangle.
3. Shade the area outside $A$ and the entire area of $B$.
4. Shade the entire area of $A$ and the area outside $B$.
10. Shade the part of $A$ not in $B$ and then the area of $C$.
11. Shade the overlapping part of $A$ and $B$ and then the area outside $C$.
