LESSON

1 SETS
Targets:
▪ Define and illustrate sets, well defined sets, cardinality
of sets, finite and infinite sets, equal and equivalent
sets, the universal sets and subsets.

▪ Reflect the importance of using sets in organizing


elements.

▪ Identify and Write elements in a set.


What is a Set?

A group or collection of objects Each object in a set is called a


is called a set. member or an element of a
set.
Two Ways to
Define a Set
Roster Method Set-builder Notation

✔ Listing the ✔ Describing the


elements elements

A = {cap, toy car, doll} A = {x|x is a red


object}
Examples:
Write each set using Write each set using
Roster Method Set-builder Notation

✔ Distinct letters in ✔ {a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h,I,j,k,l,m


the word HUMILITY ,n,o}

A = {H,U,M,I,L,T,Y} B = {x|x is one of the


first 15 letters of the
alphabet}

Elements of a
Set

Each object in a set is called a An element is denoted by the


member or an element of a
set. symbol ∈
Example:
A = {red,orange, yellow, green,blue,indigo,violet}

red ∈ A pink ∉ A
orange ∈ A white ∉ A
Read as: Read as:
red is an element of set A pink is not an element of set A
orange is an element of set A white is not an element of set A
Try this! #2
Fill in each blank with ∈ or ∉.

Set A = {even numbers between 0 and 10}


Set B = {letters of the alphabet between c and j}

1. 2 _____ A
2. 5 _____ A
3. 12 _____ A
4. b _____ B
5. g _____ B
6. e _____ B
Number of Write the set in Roster Method

Elements in a Set The set of days in a week.

The cardinality of a set is the


number of its elements.
Example:
A = {red,orange, yellow, green,blue,indigo,violet}

We denote the number of elements


in A as The cardinality of set A is 7.
n(A) = 7
Example:
B = {a girl with a long beard}

We denote the number of elements


in A as The cardinality of set B is O.
n(A) = 0
Number of
Elements in a Set

A set with no members is called an


empty or null set. It is denoted by the
symbol { } or the Danish letter Ø
Number of
Elements in a Set

Finite Sets Infinite Sets

If it is an empty set or the If the number of the


number of elements is a elements cannot be
counting number. counted or simply, not
finite.
Try this! #3
State whether the set is finite or infinite.

1. The set of teachers in your school.


2. The set of even numbers.
3. The set of counting numbers less than 100.
4. The set of stars in the sky.
5. The set of counting numbers less than 0.
Reflection

Is it important to organize elements to its


corresponding sets?
Reflection

As a student, cite experiences in your life where you


organize your own things?
Reflection

How does organizing things help you?
