Objectives
• Define what sets are
• Brief explanation of the meaning of sets
• Determine what is Set Operations
• Explain its relevance and importance
What is a Set?
an unorganized collection of multiple
elements. The elements of a set can be
listed explicitly by using set
brackets.

A={red, blue, yellow, orange, green}

B={5,10,15,20, 25, 30, 35, 40}
C={b,c,d,f,g,h,j,k,l,m}
Types of Set
• Finite • Unit Set
• Infinite • Equal Set
• Subset • Equivalent Set
• Proper Subset • Overlapping Set
• Universal Set • Disjoint Set
• Null Set
What is Set Operations?
Set operations are essential mathematical techniques
employed within set theory and mathematics to manage
and examine sets, which are assemblies of individual
and distinct elements.

• Set Union
• Set Intersection
• Set Difference
• Complement of Set
• Cartesian Product
SET UNION
An essential Set Union example:
mathematical When combining a set, we use
union symbol (∪ ).
and set theory
operation is A={2,4,6,8,10}
B={1,2,3,5,7,9}
Set Union. It C={11,12,13,14,15}

combines two Combining into two....

sets to
A∪B={1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10}
produce a new
set that A∪C={2,4,6,8,10,11,12,13,,14,15}

contains each B∪C={1,3,5,7,9,11,12,13,14,15}

set's distinct
components.
SET INTERS ECTIO
Set Set Intersection example:
intersection When finding a common element
between two sets, we use
is a intersect symbol (∩).
fundamental
operation in A={red, blue, yellow}
B={orange, yellow, green}
mathematics C={purple, white, green}

theory. It
involves A ∩ B = {yellow}
finding common A ∩ C = indefinite or null
B ∩ C = {green}
elements
between two
SET DIFFERENC
Set difference Set Difference example:
helps in
locating Includes only the elements
present in set A but not in set
components B.

that are part

of one set but X and Y …… X-Y

not the other. X = { a, b, c, d }

Y = { d, e, f, g }

• X-Y = { a, b ,c}
• Y-Z = {e, f, g}
COMPLEMENT OF SE
The set of all Complement of Set
example:
items in the
universal set If A consist of female names,
that are not then A’ consist of male names.

in A is known
A = { Alisa, Nely, Georgia}
as the A’= { Luke, Carlos, Victor}
complement of If B consist of even numbers,
a set, or A'. then B’ consist of odd numbers.

B = {2,4,6,8,10}
B’ = {1,3,5,7,9}
CARTESIAN PRODUC
The Cartesian Cartesian Product example:
product A × B Let’s say….
of two sets A A = {5,6}
and B is the B = { f, g }

set of all
The output will be…
possible
ordered pairs AxB = {(5f),(5g),(6f),(6g)}

(a, b) where a
is in A and b
is in B.
SHORT
ACTIVITY
1. K ∪ L
K = {1x,2x,3x,4x,}
//literally combining two sets in one
L = {5x,6x,7x,8x}

K ∪ L = {1x,2x,3x,4x,5x,6x,7x,8x}

2. B ∩ C
B = {24,67,90,14}
//finding similar element/s in both set.
C = {45,11,31,70}

B ∩ C = indefinite or null
//they have nothing in common.
SHORT
ACTIVITY
3. Y - Z
Y = {0,1,2,3}
//including the elements from the first
set only
Z = {1,4,5,6}

Y-Z = {0,2,3}

4. O x P
O = {person, object}
//set of all possible ordered pairs
P = {1,2}

OxP = {(person 1),(person 2),(object 1),(object2)}
