Solution
Let the universal set be U.
U : The set of all human beings.
Let P: The set of all politicians.
A: The set of all actors.
Now, the Venn diagrams for statements (a). (b) and (c) are as follows:
(a)

(b)

(c)

By Venn diagrams, we observe that the truth set of statements (a) and (b) are equal. Hence statements (a) and (b) are logically equivalent.
