Question

Answer the following:

Show that the following is an equivalence relation

R in A is set of all books. given by R = {(x, y)/x and y have same number of pages}

Sum

Solution

a. Clearly (x, x) ∈ R

∴ R is reflexive.

b. If (x, y) ∈ R then (y, x) ∈ R

∴ R is symmetric.

c. Let (x, y) ∈ R, (y, x) ∈ R.

Then x, y, and z are 3 books having same number of pages.

∴ (x, z) ∈ R as x, z have same number of pages.

∴ R is transitive.

Thus, R is an equivalence relation.
