Revision Notes — Sets

Key concepts, formulas, and definitions from Sets for J&K CET Mathematics preparation.

Key Topics to Revise

1

Basic Concepts and Representations

  • A set is a well-defined collection of distinct objects called elements
  • Sets are denoted by capital letters (A, B, C) and elements by small letters (a, b, c)
  • Two methods of representation: Roster method and Set-builder method
2

Subsets and Power Sets

  • A ⊆ B means every element of A is also in B
  • Proper subset: A ⊂ B when A ⊆ B and A ≠ B
  • Empty set is subset of every set; every set is subset of itself
3

Set Operations - Union and Intersection

  • Union (A ∪ B): elements in A or B or both
  • Intersection (A ∩ B): elements common to both A and B
  • Disjoint sets: A ∩ B = ∅
4

Complement and Difference Operations

  • Complement A' = U - A (elements in U but not in A)
  • A ∪ A' = U and A ∩ A' = ∅
  • De Morgan's Laws: (A ∪ B)' = A' ∩ B' and (A ∩ B)' = A' ∪ B'
