Theorem	uncom 4098	Commutative law for union of classes. Exercise 6 of [TakeutiZaring] p. 17. (Contributed by NM, 25-Jun-1998.) (Proof shortened by Andrew Salmon, 26-Jun-2011.)
⊢ (𝐴 ∪ 𝐵) = (𝐵 ∪ 𝐴)
Theorem	equncom 4099	If a class equals the union of two other classes, then it equals the union of those two classes commuted. equncom 4099 was automatically derived from equncomVD 45294 using the tools program translate_without_overwriting.cmd and minimizing. (Contributed by Alan Sare, 18-Feb-2012.)
⊢ (𝐴 = (𝐵 ∪ 𝐶) ↔ 𝐴 = (𝐶 ∪ 𝐵))
Theorem	equncomi 4100	Inference form of equncom 4099. equncomi 4100 was automatically derived from equncomiVD 45295 using the tools program translate_without_overwriting.cmd and minimizing. (Contributed by Alan Sare, 18-Feb-2012.)
⊢ 𝐴 = (𝐵 ∪ 𝐶)    ⇒   ⊢ 𝐴 = (𝐶 ∪ 𝐵)
