A Venn diagram displays several sets with their relationships. Commonly,
these are overlapping circles. Such sets can stand for certain properties.
If an element has two such properties, it would belong to an overlapping
area - the intersection of the two relevant sets.

We will create three filled circles. The center of each circle is specified
in polar coordinates, with a given angle and distance from the origin.
This makes radial placement easier. For example, the first circle has its
center at (90:1.2). This means that the center is at 90 degrees,
which is above the origin, and the distance is 1.2.
The radius of each circle is 2. So, they are overlapping.

Normally, overlapping would simply mean that the final circle overrides
what is below it. We still wish to look behind the circles to see the
intersections. A classical approach is to use transparency, here
we will use the blend mode feature of the PDF standard.

Note: PDF blend mode requires TikZ version 3.0 or above.
