Study Notes
Universal Set and Venn Diagrams
- The universal set contains all elements relevant to a discussion.
- Represented graphically by a rectangle in Venn diagrams.
- Subsets are illustrated as circles, ovals, or other shapes within the universal set.
Examples of Set Determination
- Example 1 showcases determination of sets using a Venn diagram:
- Universal set U = { O , ∆ , $, M, 5 }
- Set A = { O, ∆ }
- Elements in U not in A = { $, M, 5 }
Two Sets in a Venn Diagram
- Example 2 involves finding various sets in a Venn diagram:
- Elements in set A.
- Elements in universal set U that do not belong to set B.
- Elements that are common to both sets A and B.
Set Complement and Operations
- The complement of a set includes all elements in the universal set that are not part of that set.
- Intersection and union operations involve finding common elements and combining sets, respectively.
Set Operations Illustrated
- Example results using a Venn diagram:
- A ∪ B: Elements in A or B or both (Regions I, II, III).
- (A ∪ B)’: Elements in U not in A ∪ B (Region IV).
- A ∩ B: Elements in both A and B (Region II).
- (A ∩ B)’: Elements in U not in A ∩ B (Regions I, III, IV).
- A’ ∩ B: Elements not in A but in B (Region III).
- A ∪ B’: Elements in A or not in B or both (Regions I, II, IV).
Practical Use of Sets and Venn Diagrams
- Set operations and Venn diagrams help categorize and clarify sets and subsets in everyday scenarios.
- "Or" indicates a union of sets, while "and" denotes an intersection.
Constructing Venn Diagrams
- Example from a blood drive survey:
- 490 students willing to donate blood.
- 340 willing to serve breakfast to donors.
- 120 willing to do both.
- Calculating how many students are willing to donate blood only involves subtracting those willing to help serve from the total who donate.
