To find a finite subcover, select a finite subcollection C1⊆C such that the union of the sets in C1 still equals X. The chosen sets must come from the original cover C.
Conditions: C1 must be a subcollection of C.; C1 must be finite.; The union of C1 must equal X.

To check whether a collection C is a cover of X, form the union of all members of C. If the union equals X (or contains X), then every point of X lies in at least one member of C, so C is a cover.
Conditions: C is a collection of subsets of X.; The test is whether ⋃C=X.
