Set
☼ Complement of a Set : Let A be a subset of the universal set U, then the complement of A, denoted by Aٰ or A is defined by :
Aٰ = A = { x : x U, x A }.
Clearly, x A x A.
e.g.
☼ Universal Set : In the discussion about sets, all sets are assumed to be the subsets of a definite set. This definite set is called the universal set. Universal set contains the sets under discussion as subsets. The symbol U i…
☼ Super Set : If A B, we say that B is a super set of A and we write, B A.
There are infinite supersets of any finite set but there are finite subsets of any finite set….
☼ Singleton Set : A set consisting of a single element is called a singleton set.
e.g. { x / x + 5 = 7 } = { 2 }, which is a singleton set….
Roster Method ( Listing Method ) : Under this method, we just make a list of the objects of the set and put them within braces { }.
e.g. (i) If A is set of first five prime numbers, then A = { 2, 3, 5, 7,…
