Study Notes
Sets
- Sets are collections of objects.
- Definitions of sets are essential.
- Various methods exist for representing sets, including:
- Tabular/Roster method: Lists elements.
- Set-builder method: Defines a rule for elements.
- Different types of sets exist.
- Concepts of subset and superset are crucial.
- A proper subset is a subset that is not equal to the original set.
Venn Diagrams
- Venn diagrams are visual representations of sets.
Basic Operations on Sets
- Set operations include union, intersection, disjoint sets, difference, and complement.
- Union: Combining elements of all sets.
- Intersection: Common elements of sets.
- Disjoint sets have no common elements.
- Difference of sets: Elements of one set not in another.
- Complement of a set: Elements not in the set.
Cartesian Product of Two Sets
- Cartesian product describes all possible ordered pairs from two sets.
De Morgan's Laws and Distributive Laws
- De Morgan's laws relate set operations.
- Distributive laws apply to set operations.
Matrices
- Matrices are rectangular arrays of numbers.
- Various types of matrices exist, including:
- Row matrices, column matrices, zero matrices, square matrices, diagonal matrices, rectangular matrices, scalar matrices, symmetric matrices, skew-symmetric matrices, unit/identity matrices, upper triangular matrices, lower triangular matrices, and singular matrices.
