Question

Let R be the relation on the set A = {1, 2, 3, 4} given by R = {(1, 2), (2, 2), (1, 1), (4, 4), (1, 3), (3, 3), (3, 2)}. Then, _____________________ .

Options

  • R is reflexive and symmetric but not transitive

  • R is reflexive and transitive but not symmetric

  • R is symmetric and transitive but not reflexive

  • R is an equivalence relation

MCQ

Solution

R is reflexive and transitive but not symmetric.

Reflexivity: Clearly, (a, a∈ R  A

So, R is reflexive on A.

Symmetry :  Since (1, 2∈ R, but (2, 1∉ R,

R is not symmetric on A.

Transitivity : Since, (1, 3), (3, 2∈ R and (1, 2∈ R,

R is transitive on A.
