Answer

False. The true statement is $A\cap U= A$

Work Step by Step

As U is the universal set, A is a subset of U. That is, any element in A is also an element of U. The intersection operation produces a new set in which the elements are common to both A and U. The resultant set will be A itself. That is, $A\cap U= A$
