Image of Union under Relation

Theorem
Let $S$ and $T$ be sets.

Let $\RR \subseteq S \times T$ be a relation.

Let $S_1$ and $S_2$ be subsets of $S$.

Then:
 * $\RR \sqbrk {S_1 \cup S_2} = \RR \sqbrk {S_1} \cup \RR \sqbrk {S_2}$

That is, the image of the union of subsets of $S$ is equal to the union of their images.
