integers. They are non-terminating & non-repeating
decimal numbers.

Interval Notations for Real Numbers


For any two different real numbers, a and b, with a < b:
The open interval is defined as the set

(a, b) {x : a x b}

The closed interval is defined as the set

[a, b] {x : a x b}

The half-closed (or half-open) interval is defined as

(a, b] {x : a x b} or [a, b) {x : a x b}

1.3 Complex Numbers


For example, the equation x 9 0 has no real
solution. If we try to solve this equation, we will
get

x 9

But this is impossible, since square of any real


number is positive. Hence Mathematicians
invented the complex number system to solve all
quadratic equations.

Set
SET = Any collection of objects specified in
such a way that we can tell whether any
given object is or is not in the
collection.
Each object in a set is called a member, or
element, of the set.
Capital letters are often used to designate
particular sets.

Set
a A means a is an element of set A

Subset
If each element of a set A is also an element of set B,
then A is a subset of B.
If set A and set B have exactly the same elements,
then the two sets are said to be equal.

Union
The union of sets A and B , denoted by A B ,
is the set of all elements formed by combining all the
elements of A and all the elements of B into one set.
