Paragraph

Each row above is really \(\{a_i\} \times B\) for some \(a_i \in A\text{.}\) That is, we fixed the \(A\)-element. Broken up this way, we have

\begin{equation*} A \times B = (\{a_1\} \times B) \cup (\{a_2\} \times B) \cup (\{a_3\}\times B) \cup \cdots \cup (\{a_m\} \times B)\text{.} \end{equation*}
