Set
-is any WELL-DEFINED collection or group of
objects
*denoted by capital letters

Elements or Members 
-are the things that make up a
set
*denoted by small letters
 Well-defined sets:

-The set of days of the week

-The set of vowels in the English alphabet
-The set of counting numbers less that 10

 Not well-defined sets:

-The set of beautiful girls in your school

-The set of large numbers
Two ways of writing sets

 Roster Method/form-the elements are listed,

separated by a comma, and enclosed in a pair of
brackets {}.

Examples:
A={a, b, c, d, …, z}
B={2, 4, 6, 8, 10}
C={Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday,…, Sunday}
Write each set described below in roster form.

 Set A consists of the vowels of the English alphabet.

A={a, e, i, o, u}
 Set B consists of the months in a year.

B={January, February, March, …, December}

 Set C consists numbers which are multiples of 5.
C={5, 10, 15, 20, 25…}
 Set Builder Method/form-stating a property or
properties that describe all members of the set.

Examples:

A={a, b, c, d, …, z}

A={x/x is an alphabet} “x such that x”

B={2, 4, 6, 8}

B={x/x is an even number less than 10}

C={Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday,…, Sunday}

C={x/x is a day of the week}

Write each set listed below in set-builder
form.
A={a, e, i, o, u}
A={x/x is a vowel}

B={January, February, March, …, December}

B={ x/x is month of the year}
C={5, 10, 15, 20, 25…}

C={x/x is a number multiples of 5}

Sets according to their number of elements

 FINITE SET-is a set with limited number of elements.

The set of vowels of the English alphabet

 INFINITE SET-is a set with an unlimited number of
elements, the ellipsis is used to denote an infinite set.
The set of numbers
 EMPTY or NULL SET-is a set with no elements. It is
denoted by  or { }.
The set of months with 35 days.
Tell whether each elements is finite, infinite or
empty.

1. The set of school days in a week. finite

2. The set of counting numbers less than 5. finite
3. The set of excellent singers. infinite
4. The set of triangles with 4 sides. empty
5. The set of months in a year start with L. empty

Subsets

 A set is a subset of another set if all the

elements of the first set belong to the second
set. The subset is denoted by the symbol .
Consider the following set:
A={1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8} D={7, 8, 9, 10}
B={1, 3, 5, 7} E={2, 4, 6, 8}
C={2, 4, 6, 8}

B  A read as: Set B is a subset of set A

C  A All the elements in C are also found in A
D  A read as: Set D is not a subset of set A
A  A Every set is a subset of itself
  A The empty set is a subset of every set
C  E set C and set E are equal set
(equality of set)
Proper Subset

If S is a subset of T, and S is not equal to

T, then S is a proper subset of T

Let T = {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5}
If S = {1, 2, 3}, we can say S is a subset
of T

NOTE: S is not equal to T

S is a proper subset of T
A proper subset is written as S  T

Universal Set

 Is the overall set of elements under discussion.

Consider the following set:

A={1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8} D={7, 8, 9, 10}
B={1, 3, 5, 7} E={2, 4, 6, 8}
C={2, 4, 6, 8}

*totality of all the elements

U={1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10}
Activity Title: Sets
Exercise
Learning Target: To define sets in roster and set builder form.
To identify set and subsets.
To classify sets according to number of elements.

Concepts Notes:
Roster-listing the elements
Set builder-with the use of descriptor
Finite-limited
Infinite-unlimited
Empty-null
Subset-1st set belongs to the 2nd set
Universal Set-totality
