Sets & Functions
Notation & Terminology
SETS: A set is a collection of items which have some common property.
These items are called the members or elements of the set.
Sets can be described or listed using “curly bracket” notation.
Higher Outcome 2
eg {colours in traffic lights}
eg {square nos. less than 30}
DESCRIPTION LIST
NB: Each of the above sets is finite because we can list every member
= {red, amber, green}
= { 0, 1, 4, 9, 16, 25}

N = {natural numbers}
= {1, 2, 3, 4, ……….}
W = {whole numbers} = {0, 1, 2, 3, ………..}Z = {integers} = {….-2, -1, 0, 1, 2, …..}
Q = {rational numbers}
This is the set of all numbers which can be written as fractions or ratios.
eg 5 = 5/1 -7 = -7/1 0.6 = 6/10 = 3/5
55% = 55/100 = 11/20 etc
We can describe numbers by the following sets:
Higher Outcome 2
R = {real numbers}This is all possible numbers. If we plotted values on a number line then each of the previous sets would leave gaps but the set of real numbers would give us a solid line.
We should also note that
N “fits inside” W
W “fits inside” Z
Z “fits inside” Q
Q “fits inside” R

QZWN
When one set can fit inside another we say
that it is a subset of the other.
The members of R which are not inside Q are called irrational numbers. These cannot be expressed as
fractions and include , 2, 35 etc
R
Higher Outcome 2
To show that a particular element/number belongs to a particular set we use the symbol
. eg 3 W but 0.9 Z
Examples
{ x W: x < 5 }= { 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 }
{ x Z: x -6 } = { -6, -5, -4, -3, -2, …….. }
{ x R: x2 = -4 } = { } or
This set has no elements and is called the empty set.
Sets & FunctionsSets & Functions
Higher Outcome 2
If the first set is A and the second B then we often write
f: A B
Functions & Mappings
Defn: A function or mapping is a relationship between two sets in which each member of the first set is connected to exactly one member in the
second set.
The members of set A are usually referred to as the domain of the function (basically the starting values or even x-values) while the corresponding values or images come from set B and are called the range of the function (these are like y-values).
Higher Outcome 2
Functions & MappingFunctions & Mapping
Functions can be illustrated in three ways:
1) by a formula.
2) by arrow diagram.
3) by a graph (ie co-ordinate diagram).
ExampleSuppose that f: A B is defined by
f(x) = x2 + 3x where A = { -3, -2, -1, 0, 1}.FORMULA
then f(-3) = 0 , f(-2) = -2 , f(-1) = -2 , f(0) = 0 ,f(1) = 4
NB: B = {-2, 0, 4} = the range!

the graph exactly once!

Suppose that f and g are functions where
f:A B and g:B C
with f(x) = y and g(y) = z
where x A, y B and z C.
Suppose that h is a third function where
h:A C with h(x) = z .

Higher Outcome 1
Suppose that f(x) = 3x - 2 and g(x) = x2 +1
Find formulae for (a) g(f(x)) (b) f(g(x)).

= 9x2 - 12x + 5
(b) f(g(x)) = f(x2 + 1) = 3(x2 + 1) - 2= 3x2 + 1
CHECK
g(f(2)) = 9 x 22 - 12 x 2 + 5
= 36 - 24 + 5 = 17
f(g(2)) = 3 x 22 + 1 = 13 As in Ex1

Let h(x) = x - 3 , g(x) = x2 + 4 and k(x) = g(h(x)). If k(x) = 8 then find the value(s) of x.
k(x) = g(h(x))
= g(x - 3)
= (x - 3)2 + 4
= x2 - 6x + 13
Put x2 - 6x + 13 = 8
then x2 - 6x + 5 = 0
or (x - 5)(x - 1) = 0
So x = 1 or x = 5
CHECK g(h(5)) = g(2)= 22 + 4= 8

Choosing a Suitable Domain
(i) Suppose f(x) = 1 . x2 - 4
Clearly x2 - 4 0
So x2 4
So x -2 or 2
Hence domain = {xR: x -2 or 2 }
Composite FunctionsComposite Functions
Higher Outcome 1
(ii) Suppose that g(x) = (x2 + 2x - 8)
We need (x2 + 2x - 8) 0
Suppose (x2 + 2x - 8) = 0
Then (x + 4)(x - 2) = 0
So x = -4 or x = 2
So domain = { xR: x -4 or x 2 }

To obtain y from x we must ask the question
“What power of 2 gives us…?”

Example1 sin θ = 5/13 where 0 < θ < π/2
Find the exact values of cos θ and tan θ .
cos2 θ = 1 - sin2 θ

= 1 – 25/169= 144/169
cos θ = √(144/169)

Since θ is between 0 < θ < π/2
then cos θ > 0
So cos θ = 12/13

sin θ = √(1/5)
= 1/ √ 5 or - 1/ √ 5
Since θ is between π< θ < 3 π /2
sinθ < 0
Hence sinθ = - 1/√5
tan θ = sinθ cos θ
= - 1/ √ 5 ÷ -2/ √
5 = - 1/ √ 5 X - √5 /2
Hence tan θ = 1/2
