Set Theory Simple Proof

It has only just occurred to me, there is a simple set theory proof for a simple problem.

Typical Venn diagram
XX ≠ Ø, XY ≠ Ø 
XX ≠ XY
XX⊄XY, XY⊄XX

Importantly
XX ≠ XY', XY ≠ XX'

Then 

XX ∪ XY ≠ XX, XX ∪ XY ≠ XY

If 
XX x a = XY, and a ≠ Ø, what is a?
XY x b = XX, and b ≠ Ø, what is b?

As above a and b cannot be a NOT operator.

Instead of finding the vector a and b, it would be easier to draw a new set.
