What is mathematics?
Mathematics is the science that deals with the
logic of shape, quantity and arrangement.
Math is all around us, in everything we do. It is
the building block for everything in our daily
lives, including mobile devices, computers,
software, architecture (ancient and modern), art,
money, engineering and even sports.
Major lessons in Mathematics.
1. Sets
2. Measurements
3. Geometry
4. Statistics
FIRST QUARTER
What do you call by:
Example:
Set A is a set of numbers from 1 to 5
A = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}
Cardinality of a set n (A) - is the number
of elements contained in a set.
Example:
A = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}
n(A) = 5
3 ways in which we can describe a set:
1. Roster Method - List the elements in the set
Example: A= {Mon, Tue, Wed, Thu, Fri, Sat, Sun}
2. Set-builder Notation – rule method, the set is described using
properties common to the elements.
Example: A = {days of the week}
3. Verbal Description Method – describing a set in words.
Example: Set A is the set of days of the week.
Activity :
A. Write each set described below in roster method.
1. Set E consists of the vowels of the English alphabet.
Answer: E= {a,e,i,o,u}
2. Set F consists of the founding members of ASEAN
Answer: F = {Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines,
Singapore, Thailand}
B. Write each set described below in set-builder form
1. I= {+,-,x,÷} .
Answer: I = {Set I is symbol of fundamental
arithmetic operation}
2. J = {1,3,5,7,9,11,…}
Answer: J= {Set F is an odd numbers}
Questions:
1. How do you group the objects?
Name each group.
2. If Set A is the set of vegetables, can
grapes be an element of set A? Why?
3. What is the cardinality of the set of
fruits?
4. Is a group of beautiful toys a well-
defined set? Why?
5. In the picture above how do you
define set containing teddy bear and
tiger in set-builder notation? In Roster
Method?
A. Draw a happy face if the collection is a well-
defined set, otherwise draw a sad face.
