Math 7 (sets)

Cards (20)

  • Sets is a well defined group or collection of objects that share the some characteristics
  • Ellipis is represented by three dotd which is used to indicate that set has infinite elements
  • Elements are objects contained in the set
  • Brackets is a symbol used to group the elements of a set
  • Union is a summary or the joined elements of the set
  • Intersection is the common element between the two sets
  • Subset is a set whose elements are all members of another set
  • Cardinality of a set is the numbers of elements in a set
  • Well-defined set should be related to one another
  • The types of sets are : Empty set, Universal set, Subset, Cardian number of sets, Disjoint set, Well-defined set
  • Universal Set - contains all possible objects that can belong to any other set
  • Empty Set - has no member at all
  • Disjoint Sets - have no common elements
  • Well-Defined Set - must not contain duplicate elements
  • A set A is a proper subset of B if it is a subset but not equal to B
  • Finite Set - has only finite numbers of members
  • How many of cardinality of sets does
    S = {1,2,3,6,8,7}
    |S| = {6}
  • Two types of set operations are Union and Intersection
  • Union - the collection of all distinct elements that belong to at least one of two or more given sets.
  • Intersection - the collection of all distinct elements that belong to both of two or more given sets.
