 Introductory Message

For the learner:

Welcome to the Mathematics 7 Alternative Delivery Mode (ADM) Module on Sets.

The hand is one of the most symbolized parts of the human body. It is often used to
depict skill, action and purpose. Through our hands we may learn, create and accomplish.
Hence, the hand in this learning resource signifies that you as a learner is capable and
empowered to successfully achieve the relevant competencies and skills at your own pace
and time. Your academic success lies in your own hands!

This module was designed to provide you with fun and meaningful opportunities for

 What I Need to Know

This module is designed and written with you in mind. It is here to help you
master Sets. The scope of this module permits it to be used in many different ways.
The language recognizes the diverse vocabulary level of students. The lessons are
arranged to follow the standard sequence of the course. But the order in which you
read them can be changed to correspond with the textbook you are now using.

This module is divided into four lessons, namely:

 Lesson 1 – Introduction to Sets

 Lesson 2 – Types of Sets and Set Notations
 Lesson 3 – Union and Intersection of Sets
 Lesson 4 – Complement and Difference of Sets

Based from the competency, this module is crafted to help the students
illustrate well-defined sets, subsets universal sets, null set, cardinality of sets, union
and intersection of two sets and difference of two sets (M7NS-1a and M7NS-1b).

After going through this module, you are expected to:

1. enumerate the three ways of describing a set;

2. define and illustrate different types of sets;
3. identify subsets of a given set;
4. define and describe the cardinality of sets and the different set operations;
and
1. perform set operations and represent these using the Venn Diagram.

Lesson
Introduction to Sets
1

Set is one of the most fundamental concepts in Mathematics. The set theory
which was developed in 19th century is now a common part of Mathematics and can
be used as a foundation from which nearly all of Mathematical concepts can be
derived.

Math concept Description Examples

Characteristic of a set
 collection or group of
objects
 it is well-defined
 A set is said to be well-
defined if we can always
tell what is and what is
not a member of the set.
Well- defined:
 A set of Philippine
Presidents
 A set of dishes
 A set of counting
numbers
 A set of odd
numbers
Not well-defined:
 The set of all large
numbers.
 The set of good
writers.
 The set of nice
people in your class.

How to Write and Name a Set

A set is represented by a Examples:

capital letter.
A = { a, e, i, o, u } Braces
Elements are usually
represented by small
letters, numbers, words or Commas
representations of the
members of a given set.

Braces are used to Elements

enclose the elements. Set

K = { red, blue, yellow }

Commas are used to
R = { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, … }
separate the elements.
P = { +, - , ×, ÷ }

Lesson
2 Types of Sets and Set Notations

What’s New

Study closely the following sets:

1. T = { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5}
2. R = { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, ...}
Do you know that set T is different from set R? Have you noticed that there

are three (3) dots (...) in set R? The three (3) dots (...) also known as ellipsis, which

7
means that there are still numbers that follow after 5 such as 6, 7, 8, and so on. In

order to understand more about these kinds of sets, let us proceed to the next

lesson.

2. Infinite sets  A set that has uncountable or 1. V = { 2, 4, 6, 8, …}

 The ellipsis (…) is being added
to indicate that there are more
elements of the same kind that
follows after the last identified
element in the set.

Union and Intersection of Sets

 hat’s New

Study the given figures below.

Figure 1

A B C

Figure 2

D E F

Notice that in Figure 1, the objects in Box C are the objects from Box A and B.
If you combine the objects from Box A and B, the result is Box C. But take note, in
Box C, there is no repetition of objects. On the other hand, Figure 2 illustrates that
Box F is just a result if you get the common object from Box D and E.

In Sets, combining the elements without repetition is called Union of Sets

while getting the common element is called Intersection of Sets. These are called
Basic Set Operations.

In arithmetic, we have operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication

and division to combine numbers. When two or more sets are combined together to
form one set under the given conditions, then operations on sets are carried out. In
sets, we have four basic set operations but, in this lesson, we will only discuss the
first two operations namely: Union and Intersection of Sets. The last two operations
will be discussed in the next lesson.

 a.) A’ ∪ B’
b.) (A∩ C)’
c.) B – C’
Answer:
a.) A’ ∪ B’ = {1, 3, 5}’ ∪ {3, 4, 5}’
A’ ∪ B’ = {2, 4} ∪ { 1, 2}

A’ ∪ B’ = {1, 2, 4}

b.) (A ∩C )’ = ( {1, 3, 5} ∩ { 2, 4} )’

(A ∩C )’ = { }’

(A ∩C )’ = {1 ,2, 3, 4, 5 } or U

c.) B – C’ = {3, 4, 5 } – { 2 , 4 }’

B – C’ = {3, 4, 5 } – { 1, 3, 5 }

B – C’ = {4}
