Set • It is a collection of objects that have something in common or follow a rule. • The objects in the set are called its elements. • Set notation uses curly braces, with elements separated by commas.
A = {coat, hat, scarf, gloves, boots}, • Set A has 5 elements. • Coat A
B = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10}C = {2, 4, 6, 8, 10} • Subset – is part of a set. • Set C is a subset of set B. • We call set B the universal set…Venn Diagram is:
U = {a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, i, j, k, l, m}A = {a, c, e, g, i, k, m}B = {b, d, f, h}
U = {a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, i, j, k, l, m}A = {a, c, e, g, i, k, m}B = {a, b, c, d, e, f}
U = {a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, i, j, k, l, m}A = {a, b, d, e, h, j, m}B = {a, d, e, f, g, h, k}C = {b, c, f, h, l}
Union • It is the joining of all elements of two or more sets • It is represented as A B.
A = {letters in the word mathematics}B = {letters in the word problem} • Find A B
A = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12}B = {set of odd numbers}C = {multiples of three}D = {Multiples of four} Find: B C= C D = B D= B C D =
Intersection • This consists of the elements that the sets have in common. • It is represented as A B.
A = {letters in the word mathematics}B = {letters in the word problem} • Find A B
A = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12}B = {set of odd numbers}C = {multiples of three}D = {Multiples of four} Find: B C= C D = B D= B C D =
Complement • Consists of the elements not in that set. • Represented as A’ • Read “not A”
U = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7,8, 9, 10}A = { 2, 4, 6, 8, 10}B = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7}
