Ch. 2. Cartesian Product of Sets and Relations - Concepts Review

Contents

2.1 Cartesian product of sets
2.2 Relations
2.3 Types of relations
2.4 Some results on relations
2.5 Composition of relations



2.1 Cartesian product of sets

Cartesian product is an operation on sets.


Ordered pair: An Ordered pair consists of two objects or elements in a given fixed order.

Cartesian product: Let A and B be any two non empty sets. The set of all ordered pairs (a,b) such that a ЄA and b ЄB is called the Cartesian product of the sets A and B and is denoted by A×B

Theorems

Theorem 1; For any three sets

(i) A×(B U C) = (A×B) U (A×C)
(ii) A×(B∩C) = (A×B) ∩(A×C)

Theorem 2: For any three sets

A×(B – C) = (A×B) – (A×C)

Theorem 3: If and A and B are any two non-empty sets, then

A×B = B×A => A = B

Theorem 4: If A is a subset of B, A×A is a sub set of (A×B) ∩(B×A)


2.2 Relation

Let A and B be two sets. Then a relation R from A to B is a subset of A×B.

R is a relation from A to B => R is a subset of A×B.

Total number of relations: If A and B are two non empty sets with m and n elements respectively, A×B consists of mn ordered pairs.
Since each subset defines a relation from A to B, so total number of relations from A to B is 2mn.


2.3 Types of relations


Void relation
Universal relation
Identity relation
Reflexive relation
Symmetric relation
Transitive relation
Antisymmetric relation
Equivalence relation


Cartesian Products of Sets and Relations - Part 2



2.4 Some more properties and results on relations

1. If R and S are two equivalence relations on a set A, then R∩S is also an equivalence relation on A.
2. The union of two equivalence relations on a set is not necessarily an equivalence relation on the set.
3. If R is an equivalence relation on a set A, the R-1 is also an equivalence relation on A.


2.5 Composition of Relations

When r and S are two relations from set A to B and B to C respectively, we can define a relation SoR from A to C such that

(a.c) Є SoR imples for all b Є B subject to the relations (a,b) ЄR and (b.c) ЄS.

SoR is called the composition of R and S.

Properties of SoR

In general RoS is not equal to SoR.

(SoR) - = R-oS-

CBSE - XI Class Syllabus for 2015 - 2016

MATHEMATICS (Code No. 041)



Senior Secondary stage is a launching stage from where the students go either for higher academic education in Mathematics or for professional courses like Engineering, Physical and Bioscience, Commerce or Computer Applications. The present revised syllabus has been designed in accordance with National Curriculum Framework 2005 and as per guidelines given in Focus Group on Teaching of Mathematics 2005 which is to meet the emerging needs of all categories of students.

Motivating the topics from real life situations and other subject areas, greater emphasis has been laid on application of various concepts.

Objectives
The broad objectives of teaching Mathematics at senior school stage intend to help the students:
 to acquire knowledge and critical understanding, particularly by way of motivation and visualization, of basic concepts, terms, principles, symbols and mastery of underlying processes and skills.
 to feel the flow of reasons while proving a result or solving a problem.
 to apply the knowledge and skills acquired to solve problems and wherever possible, by more than one method.
 to develop positive attitude to think, analyze and articulate logically.
 to develop interest in the subject by participating in related competitions.
 to acquaint students with different aspects of Mathematics used in daily life.
 to develop an interest in students to study Mathematics as a discipline.
 to develop awareness of the need for national integration, protection of environment, observance of
small family norms, removal of social barriers, elimination of gender biases.
 to develop reverence and respect towards great Mathematicians for their contributions to the field of Mathematics.

Ch. 1. Sets - Concept Review



1,1 Set Explanation

Mathematicians encountered server difficulties in defining set. They realized that there is a need for some undefined (primitive) terms. Thus set and elements are undefined terms in mathematics.

Set is synonymous with the words, ‘collection’, aggregate’, ‘class’, and is comprised of elements.

The words ‘element’, ‘object’, and ‘member’ are synonymous.

Sets designated by specific letters.

N: natural numbers
Z : integers
Z+: positive integers
Q: rational numbers
Q+: positive rational numbers
R: real numbers
R+: positive real numbers
C: complex numbers


1.2 Description of a set

Sets can be described by roster method or set-builder method.


1.3 Types of sets

Empty set
Singleton set
Finite set
Infinite set
Equivalent set
Equal set
Subset
Universal set
Power set

1.4 Theorems on subsets

1. Every set is a subset of itself.
2. The empty set is a subset of every set.
3. The total number of subsets of a finite set containing n elements is 2ⁿ


1.5 Universal Set

A set that contains all sets in a given context (in simple terms in the given problem) is called the universal set.


1.6 Power Set

Given a set A, the collection of all subsets of A is called the power set of A and is denoted by P(A).


1.7 Venn Diagrams

In Venn diagrams the universal set U is represented by points within a rectangle and its subsets are represented by points in closed curves (usually circles) within the the rectangle. If two sets A and B have some common elements, they will be shown two intersecting circles. If the two sets are disjointed sets, then they are represented by two non-intersecting circles. If set B is a subset of A,  then B is shown as a circle inside the circle representing set A.


1.8 Operations on Sets

Union of Sets

Intersection of Sets

Difference of Sets

Symmetric Difference of Two Sets

Disjoint Sets

Complement of a Set

1.9 Laws of algebra of sets


1. Idempotent laws

(i) A U A = A
(ii) A ∩ A = A

2. Identity laws

(i) A U ф = A
(ii) A ∩ U = A

3. commutative law
(i) A U B = B U A
(ii) A ∩ B = B ∩ A

4. Associative laws

(i) (A U B) U C = A U (B U C)
(ii) (A ∩ B) ∩ C = A ∩ (B ∩ C)

5. Distributive laws

(i) A U (B ∩ C) = (A U B) ∩ (A U C)
(ii) A ∩ (B U C) = (A ∩ B) U (A ∩ C)

6. De-morgan’s laws

(i) (A U B)’ = A’ ∩ B’
(ii) (A ∩ B)’ = A’ U B’

1.10 Some more theorems


Theorem 1

(i) A – B = A ∩ B’
(ii) B – A = B ∩ A’
(iii) A – B = A  A ∩ B = ф
(iv) (A – B) U B = A U B
(v) (A-B) ∩ B = ф
(vi) A is a sub set of B  B’ is a subset of A’
(vii) (A-B) U (B-A) = (A U B) – (A ∩ B)

Theorem 2

If A, B and C are three sets, then

(i) A – (B ∩ C) = (A-B) U (A-C)
(ii) A – (B U C) = (A-B) ∩ (A-C)
(iii) A ∩ (B-C) = (A ∩ B) - (A ∩ C)
(iv) A ∩ (B Δ C) = (A∩B) Δ (A∩C)


1.11 Number of Elements in Sets

Note union operation and universal set have the same symbol in these pages. Hence identify appropriately.

n(A) denotes the number of elements in the set A. Similarly n(B) and n(C).

If A,B and C are finite sets. U is the finite universal set, then

(i) n(A U B) = n(A) +n(B) – n(A∩B)

(ii) n(A U B) = n(A) +n(B)  implies A, B are disjoint non-void sets.

(iii) n(A-B) = n(A) –n(A∩B)

(iv) n(A ΔB) = Number of elements which belong to exactly one of A or B
= n((A-B) U (B-A))

(v) n(A U B U C) = n(A) + n(B) + n(C) – n(A∩B) – n(B∩C) – n(A∩C)+n(A∩B∩C)

(vi) No. Of elements in exactly two of the sets A,B,C
= n(A∩B) + n(B∩C)+n(C∩A)-3n(A∩B∩C)

(vii) No. Of elements in exactly one of the sets A,B,C
= n(A) +n(B)+n(C)-2n(A∩B)-2n(B∩C)-2n(A∩C)+3n(A∩B∩C)

(viii) n(A’ U B’) = n((A∩B)’) = n(U) – n(A∩B)

(ix) n(A’∩B’) = n((AUB)’) = n(U)-n(A∩B)
