Example of Set Intersection

Let $A$, $B$ and $C$ be sets defined by circles embedded in the complex plane as follows:

\(\ds A\) \(=\) \(\ds \set {z \in \C: \cmod {z + i} < 3}\)
\(\ds B\) \(=\) \(\ds \set {z \in \C: \cmod z < 5}\)
\(\ds C\) \(=\) \(\ds \set {z \in \C: \cmod {z + 1} < 4}\)

Then $A \cap B \cap C$ can be illustrated graphically as:

where the intersection is depicted in yellow.
