. LOGARITHM
LOGARIlHM OF A NUMBER :
The logarithm of the number N to the base 'a' Is the exponent indicating
the power to which the base 'a' must be raised to obtain the number N.
This number is designated as log. N .
(a) log, N - x, read as log of N to the base a <::> a' = N
If a = 10 then we write log N or log,oN and if a - e we write

Let f(x) be defined on an open interval about 'a' except possibly at
'a' itself. If fIx) gets arbitrarily close to L (a finite number) for all x (b) Difference rule: Lim[f(x)-g(x)]=I-m

sufficiently close to 'a' we say that fIx) a pproaches the limit L as x


approaches 'a' and we write Lim f(x) = L and say "the limit of fIx), (e) Product rule: Urn f(x).g (x) = I.m

The derivative of a function 'f' is function; this function is denoted
by symbols such as
(a) Let f'(a'j = p & f'(a-j = q where p & q a re finite then:
(i) p = q => f is derivable at x = a => f is continuous at x = a

or dx
(li) p '" q => f is not derivable at x = a
It is very important to note that 'f' may be still continuous at
The derivative evaluated at a point a, can be written as : x=a
f'(a), [ddf(X)] ,f'(x)~ : " etc. In short, for a function 'f' :

The right hand derivative of f(x) at x - a denoted by I'(a') is
defined as: Continuous => Mayor may not be Differentiable
(b) Geometrical interpretation of differentiability:
f '(a +) = Lim f(a + h) - f(a) , provided the limit exists & is finite.

The left hand derivative of f(x) at x - a denoted by f(a-) is defined !

Identity Relation: Let A be a set. Then the relation IA = {(a, a) : a E AI
RELATIONS on A is called the identity relation on A.
In other words, a relation IA on A is called the identity relation if every
element of A is related to itself only.
INlRODUCTION : Reflexive Relation: A relation R on a set A is said to be reflexive if
Let A and B be two sets. Then a relation R from A to B is a subset of A x B. every element of A is related to itself.
thus, R is a relation from A to B <=> R ~ A x B. Thus, R on a set A is not reflexive if there exists an element A E A such
Total Number of Realtions: Let A and B be two non-empty finite that (a , a) i! R.

Symmetric Relation : A relation R on a set A is said to be a symmetric
Domain and Range of a relation: Let R be a relation from a set A

(a, b) E R ~ (b, a) E R for all a, b E A
ordered pairs belonging to R is called to domain of R, while the set of all
i.e. aRb ~ bRa for all a, b, E A.
second components or coordinates of the ordered pairs in R is called
Transitive Relation: Let A be any set. A relation R on A is said to be

a transitive relation iff
Thus, Domain (R) - {a : (a , b) E R} (a, b) E Rand (b, c) E R ~ (a , c) E R for all a, b, c E A
ana, Range (R) - {b : {a, b) E R} i.e. aRb and b R c ~ aRc for all a, b, c E A
It is evident from the definition that the domain of a relation from A to B Antisymmetric Relation: Let A be any set. A relation R on set A is

Inverse Relation : Let A; B be two sets and let R be a relation from a (a, b) E R and (b, a) E R ~ a = b for all a , b E A
set A to a set B. Then the inverse of R, denoted by R-l , is a relation from J Equivalence Relation : A relation R on a set A is said to be an

In this section we intend to define various types of relations on a given J is also reflexive.
