Let R be the relation in the set {1, 2, 3, 4} given by R = {(1, 2), (2, 2), (1, 1), (4, 4), (1, 3), (3, 3), (3, 2)}. Then R is(a) Reflexive and symmetric but not transitive (b) Reflexive and transitive but not symmetric (c) Symmetric and transitive but not reflexive (d) An equivalence relations

Answer»

(b) Reflexive and transitive but not symmetric

Let A = {1, 2, 3, 4} 

 (1, 1), (2, 2), (3, 3) and (4, 4) ∈R ⇒ R is reflexive 

 (1, 2) ∈ R but (2, 1) ∉ R ; (1, 3) ∈ R and (3, 1) ∉ R ; (3, 2) ∈R and (2, 3) ∉ R ⇒ R is not symmetric 

• (1, 3) ∈ R and (3, 2) ∈ R and (1, 2) ∈ R 

⇒ R is transitive.
