Sets and Functions : True Subsets

Let U be the set { 1, 2, 3}. There are 8 subsets . What are they? If A and B are arbitrary subsets of U, there are 64 possible relations of the form “A is subset of B”. Count the number of true ones.

Sets and Functions : Set Difference

The difference between two sets A and B, denoted by A – B, is the set of all elements in A and not in B, thus A – B = A∩B’. Show that A – B = A – (A∩B) = (A U B) – B .

Sets and Functions : Set Difference

The difference between two sets A and B, denoted by A – B, is the set of all elements in A and not in B, thus A – B = A∩B’. Show that (A – B) – C = A – (BUC).

Sets and Functions : Set Difference

The difference between two sets A and B, denoted by A – B, is the set of all elements in A and not in B, thus A – B = A∩B’. Show that A – (B – C) = (A – B)U(A∩C).

Sets and Functions : Set Difference

The difference between two sets A and B, denoted by A – B, is the set of all elements in A and not in B, thus A – B = A∩B’. Show that (AUB) – C = (A – C)U(B – C).

Sets and Functions : Set Difference

The difference between two sets A and B, denoted by A – B, is the set of all elements in A and not in B, thus A – B = A∩B’. Show that A – (BUC) = (A – B)∩(A – C).

Sets and Functions : The Symmetric Difference of Two Sets

The symmetric difference of two sets A and B, denoted by A Δ B, is defined by A Δ B = ( A – B ) U ( B – A ); it is thus the union of their differences in opposite orders. Show that A Δ ( B Δ C ) = ( A Δ B ) Δ C.
