Study Notes
What is Set Theory?
- Set theory is a way to group and organize objects or things.
- It's like putting toys away in a toy box, but instead of toys, we're working with numbers, shapes, or other things.
Basic Concepts
- Set: A collection of unique objects, called elements or members.
- Element: A single object in a set.
- Member: Another word for element.
Set Notation
- We use curly brackets
{ }to show a set. - For example,
{1, 2, 3, 4, 5}is a set of numbers from 1 to 5.
Types of Sets
-
Empty Set: A set with no elements, denoted by
{ }or∅. -
Singleton Set: A set with only one element, e.g.
{5}. -
Finite Set: A set with a limited number of elements, e.g.
{1, 2, 3, 4, 5}. - Infinite Set: A set with an endless number of elements, e.g. all natural numbers.
Set Operations
-
Union: Combining two or more sets to get all the elements, denoted by
∪. -
Intersection: Finding the elements common to two or more sets, denoted by
∩. -
Difference: Finding the elements in one set that are not in another set, denoted by
-.
Examples
-
Union:
{1, 2, 3} ∪ {3, 4, 5} = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5} -
Intersection:
{1, 2, 3} ∩ {3, 4, 5} = {3} -
Difference:
{1, 2, 3} - {3, 4, 5} = {1, 2}
Fun Activities
- Create a set of your favorite toys or books.
- Draw a Venn diagram to show the union and intersection of two sets.
- Play a game where you identify elements in a set or find the difference between two sets.
