Disjoint sets Two sets A and B are said to be disjoint, if A∩B=Φ. If A∩B≠Φ, then A and B are said to be intersecting or overlapping sets As shown in Fig(vi) Fig(vi)  Example If A={ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 }, B={ 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 } and C= { 6, 8, 10,…

Intervals as subsets of R    Closed intervals  Let a and b be two given real numbers such that a < b. Then the set of all real numbers x such that a ≤ x ≤ b is called a closed interval and is denoted by [a, b] .   Thus,     [a, b] = {…

Power set  Let A be a set. Then the collection or family of all subsets of A is called the power set of A and is denoted by P(A). That is.  P(A) = { S : S ⊂ A }. Since the empty set and the set A itself are subsets of A and are…

Ordered pairs                An ordered pairs consists of two objects or elements in a given fixed order.  For example, if A and B are any two sets, then by an ordered pair of elements we mean a pair (a, b) in that order, where a ∈ A, b ∈…

Types of relation Void relation:- Let A be a set. Then, Φ ⊆ A x A and so it is a relation on A. This relation is called the void or empty relation on set A.                    In other words, a relation R on a set A is called void or empty relation, if no element…

Symmetry difference of sets Let A and B be two sets. The symmetry difference of sets A and B is the set (A-B) ∪ (B-A)  and it is denoted by A ∆ B. Then A∆B=(A-B) ∪ (B-A) = {x : x ∉ A ∩ B}. In Fig 9 shaded region represents A∆B Fig (9) Example…
