Question:

Make correct statements by filling in the symbols \( ⊂ \) or \(⊄\) in the blank spaces:
(i) {2, 3, 4} … {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}
(ii) {a, b, c} … {b, c, d}
(iii) {x: x is a student of Class XI of your school} … {x: x student of your school}
(iv) {x: x is a circle in the plane} … {x: x is a circle in the same plane with radius 1 unit}
(v) {x: x is a triangle in a plane}…{x: x is a rectangle in the plane}
(vi) {x: x is an equilateral triangle in a plane}… {x: x is a triangle in the same plane} 
(vii) {x: x is an even natural number} … {x: x is an integer}

Solution and Explanation

(i) {2,3,4}\( ⊂\) {1,2,3,4,5}


(ii) {a,b,c} \(⊄\) {b,c,d}


(iii) {x: x is a student of class XI of your school} \(⊂\) {x: x is student of your school}


(iv) {x: x is a circle in the plane} \(⊄\) {x: x is a circle in the same plane with radius 1 unit}


(v) {x: x is a triangle in a plane} \( ⊄\) {x: x is a rectangle in the plane}


(vi) {x: x is an equilateral triangle in a plane} \(⊂\) {x: x in a triangle in the same plane}


(vii) {x: x is an even natural number} ⊂ {x: x is an integer}

Concepts Used:

Types of Sets

Sets are of various types depending on their features. They are as follows:

  • Empty Set - It is a set that has no element in it. It is also called a null or void set and is denoted by Φ or {}.
  • Singleton Set - It is a set that contains only one element.
  • Finite Set - A set that has a finite number of elements in it.
  • Infinite Set - A set that has an infinite number of elements in it.
  • Equal Set - Sets in which elements of one set are similar to elements of another set. The sequence of elements can be any but the same elements exist in both sets.
  • Sub Set - Set X will be a subset of Y if all the elements of set X are the same as the element of set Y.
  • Power Set - It is the collection of all subsets of a set X.
  • Universal Set - A basic set that has all the elements of other sets and forms the base for all other sets.
  • Disjoint Set - If there is no common element between two sets, i.e if there is no element of Set A present in Set B and vice versa, then they are called disjoint sets.
  • Overlapping Set - It is the set of two sets that have at least one common element, called overlapping sets.
