Study Notes
Sets
- Sets are fundamental in modern mathematics, used in nearly every branch of the field.
- Sets define relations and functions.
- Georg Cantor, a German mathematician (1845-1918), developed set theory.
- Sets are collections of objects of a specific kind.
- Well-defined collections of objects are sets.
Set Representations
- Roster form: Lists elements within braces { }, separated by commas.
- Example: {1, 3, 5, 7, 9} (Odd natural numbers less than 10)
- Order of elements is irrelevant
- Set-builder form: Defines a set by describing its elements' properties inside braces{ }.
- Example: {x | x is a vowel in the English alphabet}
Special Sets
- N: Natural numbers (1, 2, 3, ...)
- Z: Integers (...-3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, ...)
- Q: Rational numbers (fractions)
- R: Real numbers (all numbers on the number line)
- Z+: Positive integers (1, 2, 3, ...)
- Q+: Positive rational numbers (positive fractions)
- R+: Positive real numbers
Empty Set
- A set with no elements is called the empty set (∅ or {}).
Finite and Infinite Sets
- Finite sets: Have a definite number of elements.
- Infinite sets: Do not have a definite number of elements.
- Examples include natural numbers, integers, and real numbers.
Equal Sets
- Two sets are equal if they have the exact same elements.
- The order of elements in a set does not matter.
Subsets
- A set A is a subset of set B (A ⊂ B) if every element of A is also in B.
- Every set is a subset of itself.
- The empty set is a subset of every set.
Set Operations
- Union (∪): Combines elements from both sets, listing each element only once.
- Intersection (∩): Combines elements common to both sets.
- Difference (–): Combines elements from the first set that are not in the second set.
- Example: A – B = elements in A but not in B
