INTERSECTION AND UNION:

The set of elements common to two given sets A and B is known as the intersection and written as A ∩ B. The set of elements appearing in at least one of these sets is called the union, denoted by A ∪ B.

EXAMPLE: Decide which elements ought to belong to each of A ∪ B ∪ C and A ∩ B ∩ C. Then write a compact description of each set using bar notation.

Note that the set operation of intersection corresponds to the logical operation of conjunction. This relationship is made clear by the fact that

A ∩ B = {x | x ∈ A and x ∈ B}.

Similarly, union corresponds to the logical operation of disjunction, since

A ∪ B = {x | x ∈ A or x ∈ B}.

We say that A and B are equal sets, written A = B, if these two sets contain precisely the same elements. One common technique for showing that two sets are equal is to show that every element of the first set must be an element of the second set, and vice-versa.

To establish the set identity A ∩ B = A ∪ B we use these two strategies.

Step one: Let x be any element of the first set; i.e. let x ∈A ∩ B. This means that x “∈ A ∩ B. Since A ∩ B consists of elements in both A and B, if x is not in the intersection then either x “∈ A or x “∈ B, or both. In other words, x ∈ Aor x ∈ B, which means that x ∈ A ∪ B.

Step two: On the other hand, if x ∈ A ∪ B then we know that x ∈ A or x ∈ B, which means that x “∈ A or x “∈ B. Since x is missing from at least one of the sets A or B, it cannot reside in their intersection, hence x “∈ A∩B. Finally, this is the same as x ∈ A ∩ B. Hence, we conclude that the sets A ∩ B and A ∪ Bare indeed equal.

Lessons-Worksheets-Question Papers-CBSE Class 2 English CBSE 2nd Class English – One and Many In this blog, we share the spelling rules used in the concept of One and Many. When there is only one of a naming word (noun), it is said to be a singular noun . When a noun shows more than one, it is said to be in the plural . We can add –S, -es, -ves or ies to show that there is more than one noun. For example, we say many birds, four biscuits, six brushes. But for the students of Class 2 , it’s very difficult and confusing to understand where to use s , es, ves or ies in the form of many. Don’t worry, it looks difficult, but it is very easy as in grammar each concept has a set of rules that need to practice. Noun ending with –s, -x, -o, -sh, -ch, and –ss form plurals by taking –es. Look at these pairs of words: Bus – Buses Brush – Brushes Continue ..... Click here ...

Magnetic and non-magnetic material Class 6 Science

Magnetic and non-magnetic material Class 6 Science A magnet is a substance that is drawn to certain magnetic materials like iron, cobalt, and nickel. Magnets have the ability to draw iron to them. Natural magnets are rocks that naturally draw iron. Non-magnetic materials include things like wood, rubber, coins, feathers, leather, etc. that are not drawn to iron. Magnet characteristics It pulls magnetic materials, such as iron. The magnet's two ends are referred to as its poles. The magnet's diametrically opposed poles are drawn together. Heating, hammering, or dropping causes it to lose its characteristics. On the basis of properties types of Magnets Temporary magnets are those magnets that are magnetic for only a little duration. Typically, iron, cobalt, or nickel are used to make them. When they are close to the powerful magnet, they act like a magnet. When they are yanked away from the powerful magnet, they stop being magnetic. Permanent magnets are magnets that have magne...
