Set Theory

Master CSEC set theory — set concepts and notation, representing sets, subsets and the number of subsets, equal and equivalent sets, operations (intersection, union, complement) with the formula n(A ∪ B) = n(A) + n(B) − n(A ∩ B), and constructing and solving problems with Venn diagrams. Each lesson has worked examples, exam-style questions and practice.
