If A is not a fuzzy number then there exists an [0, 1] such that is not a
convex subset of R (See Figure 12).

Denition 2.11 A fuzzy set A is called triangular fuzzy number A = (a, α, β) with
peak (or center) at a, left width 0 and right width 0 if its membership func-
tion has the following form
μ(x) =
(2.19)
It can easily be veried that
= [a - (1 - ) , a + (1 - ) ], [0, 1]. (2.20)
The support of A is (a - , b +
