  • Intersection (A ∩ B): Elements common to both A and B
  • Complement (A'): Elements in universal set U but not in A
3

Intervals on Real Line

  • Open interval (a,b): a < x < b, endpoints not included
  • Closed interval [a,b]: a ≤ x ≤ b, endpoints included
  • Semi-open intervals: [a,b) includes a but not b, (a,b] includes b but not a
4

Cartesian Product and Ordered Pairs

  • Ordered pair (a,b): Order matters, (a,b) ≠ (b,a) unless a = b
  • Cartesian product A × B = {(a,b) : a ∈ A, b ∈ B}
  • n(A × B) = n(A) × n(B)
