Introduction

Mathematics has played and continues to play a critical role inexpanding fields of science and technology.

It is mainly because of the requirement that research needs to beable to quantify and accurately evaluate the results of changes ina field of endeavour.

Introduction

To develop new treatments for medical conditions knowing theamount of medication administered is critical.

Mathematical formulas and models may be applied to test thestructural and functional soundness of the design before it is massproduced.

Computer-aided design is increasingly important in this type ofuse and it is all based on application of mathematics.

Introduction

Mathematics and mathematical science is a study which analyzesrisks associated with nuclear power, hydrogen infrastructure andspace systems, and provides useful problem solving technology.

Academic needs of mathematics and mathematical science haveintensified rapidly.

Problems posed in each field provide feed back for mathematics,leading to expectations for the development of new academicfields within the framework of mathematics.

Introduction to Mathematical logic Tautologies and contradictions

Tautology

A tautology is a formula which is always true i.e. it is true for everyassignment of truth values to its simple components.

Contradiction

The opposite of a tautology is a contradiction, a formula which isalways false. In other words, a contradiction is false for everyassignment of truth values to its simple components.

Introduction to Mathematical logic Logically equivalence

Logically equivalence

The formulas A and B are said to be logically equivalent when A istrue if and only if B is true (i.e. A⇒ B and B⇒ A)

Example:

1 A real number is positive if and only if it is greater than zero.

2 He is a bachelor if and only if he is an unmarried man.

Compound proposition

One that can be broken down into more primitive propositions.

Example:If it is a sunny outside then I can walk to work; otherwise I drive, and ifit is raining then I can carry umbrella.

This consists of several primitive propositions:

p=It is a sunny outside, q=I walk to work, r=I drive, s= It is raining andt=I carry my umbrella.

Connectives: if ... then, otherwise, and

If p then q; otherwise r and if s then t .If p then q and (if not p then (r and (if s then t))).p implies q and ((not p) implies (r and (s implies t))).

Rational numbers - Q

The rational numbers are those numbers which can be expressed asa ratio between two integers.

All the integers are included in the rational numbers, since any integerZ can be written as the ratio Z/1.

Natural numbers are those used for counting (as ”there are sixcoins on the table”) and ordering.

Geographically, we represent sea level with integers. Obviously,below sea level is represented with negative integers. Forexample, Death Valley in California is located at eighty six metersbelow sea level. This can be represented numerically as 86 m.

As repetition is allowed, we have five options for each digit of thecode. Hence, the required number of ways code can be formed is,5×5×5=125.

2 In how many ways can the letters of the word APPLE can berearranged?

Total number of characters in APPLE = 5.Number of repeated characters = 2.Number of ways APPLE can be rearranged = 5!/2! = 60.The word APPLE can be rearranged in 60 ways.

Set theory Product of sets

Cartesian Product

The Cartesian Product of two sets A and B is the set of all OrderedPairs (a,b) where the first element of order pairs a belongs to first set Aand second element of ordered pairs b belongs or second set B.

Note: Cartesian product of set A and B is not equal to Cartesianproduct of set B and A.

Example:

If set A={1,2} and set B={4,5}Then,A×B=[ {1,4} , {1,5} , {2,4} , {2,5} ] andB×A=[ {4,1} , {4,2} , {5,1} , {5,2} ]

Power Set

A Power set is a set of all the subsets of a set.

Example:

For the set {a,b,c}: These are subsets;{},{a},{b},{c},{a,b}, {a,c},{b,c},{a,b,c}And when we list all the subsets of S={a,b,c } we get the Power Setof {a,b,c}:

Algebra of sets

Algebra of sets explains the basic properties and laws of sets,i.e., the set-theoretic operations of union, intersection, andcomplementation.

It explains the relations of set equality and set inclusion.
