What to Focus On
- Ordered pair (a, b): order of elements is strictly important; (a, b) ≠ (b, a) unless a = b
- A × B = {(a, b) : a ∈ A, b ∈ B} — all possible ordered pairs
- n(A × B) = n(A) × n(B) — multiply the number of elements
- R is a relation from A to B means R ⊆ A × B
- Domain = set of all first elements; Range = set of all second elements
- Codomain = entire set B; Range ⊆ Codomain always
- Function: every element of domain A has exactly ONE image in B
- Many-to-one is allowed in a function; one-to-many is NOT allowed
- Every function is a relation but not every relation is a function
Common Mistakes to Avoid
Every relation from set A to set B is a function
A × B and B × A are always the same set
The range of a function is always equal to its codomain
Memory Tips
Ordered Pair – order matters, (a,b) ≠ (b,a)
Cartesian Product A×B = all ordered pairs from A and B
n(A×B) = n(A) × n(B)
A×B ≠ B×A (Cartesian product is not commutative)
