Math Problem Statement

Misal diberikan himpunan A = {2, 3, 4} dan B = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}. Berikanlah sebuah himpunan yang merupakan proper superset dari A sekaligus juga merupakan subset dari himpunan B!

Solution

The problem asks to find a set that is:

  1. A proper superset of set A={2,3,4}A = \{2, 3, 4\}, meaning it must contain all elements of AA plus at least one additional element.
  2. A subset of set B={1,2,3,4,5}B = \{1, 2, 3, 4, 5\}, meaning it can only contain elements from BB.

Solution Steps:

  • Set A={2,3,4}A = \{2, 3, 4\} is given.
  • Set B={1,2,3,4,5}B = \{1, 2, 3, 4, 5\} is also given.

To meet both conditions:

  1. The new set must include all elements of AA (i.e., 2,3,42, 3, 4).
  2. It must include at least one more element from BB that is not already in AA. The possible additional elements from BB are 11 and 55.

Possible Solution:

  • One valid set would be {1,2,3,4}\{1, 2, 3, 4\}. This is a proper superset of AA (since it contains all elements of AA and one additional element, 11), and it is a subset of BB.
  • Another valid set could be {2,3,4,5}\{2, 3, 4, 5\}, which is also a proper superset of AA and a subset of BB.

Thus, two valid answers are:

  • {1,2,3,4}\{1, 2, 3, 4\}
  • {2,3,4,5}\{2, 3, 4, 5\}

Would you like further clarification or more details on how proper supersets and subsets work?


Here are 5 related questions you might find helpful:

  1. What is the difference between a subset and a proper subset?
  2. Can a set be a proper subset and a superset at the same time?
  3. What is the power set of a given set?
  4. How many proper subsets can be formed from a set with nn elements?
  5. How can we determine the union and intersection of two sets?

Tip: When finding proper supersets, always check if there are extra elements that belong to the larger set but are not in the smaller set.
