    Study Notes

    Set Notation and Venn Diagrams

    • A set can be described in words, and additional elements can be added to it.
    • Example sets include:
      • {Moscow, London, Cairo, Delhi, …} (cities)
      • {euro, dollar, yen, …} (currencies)
      • {Barcelona, Real Madrid, Benfica, Ajax, Juventus} (football teams)
      • {Beethoven, Mozart, Greig, Brahms} (composers)

    Venn Diagrams

    • A Venn diagram can be used to represent sets and their relationships.
    • Example:
      • Set A and Set B can be described in words based on the diagram.
      • The intersection of Set A and Set B (A ∩ B) can be identified.

    Sets of Numbers

    • A set can be defined using a specific criteria, such as:
      • X = {square numbers up to 100}
      • Y = {cube numbers up to 100}
    • A Venn diagram can be used to show the relationships between these sets.
    • The intersection of the sets (X ∩ Y) can be identified.

    Surveys and Set Notation

    • A survey can be represented using set notation, where each set represents a category (e.g. having a rabbit, having a cat, etc.).
    • The number of students in each set can be counted, and Venn diagrams can be used to show the relationships between the sets.
