Let R be a relation on the set of all natural numbers given by a R b ⇔ a divides b2 . Which of the following properties does R satisfy ?I.   ReflexivityII.   Symmetry III.  Transitivity(A)  I only(B)  III only (C)  I and III only (D)  I and II only 

Answer»

Correct option  (A) I only 

Explanation:

(I)  This relation is reflexive relation because every natural no. divides square of itself

a R a  a divides a2

(II)  not symmetric eg. 5 R 10  5 Divide 100

But 10 R 5  10 Divide 25

(III)  Not transitivity for example

if 8 R 4 & 4 R 2   8 R 2

only (I) Option
