Question

Let X = {a, b, c, d} and R = {(a, a), (b, b), (a, c)}. Write down the minimum number of ordered pairs to be included to R to make it equivalence

Sum

Solution

Given X = {a, b, c, d}

R = {(a, a), (b, b), (a, c)}

To make R reflexive we need to include (c, c)

To make R symmetric we need to include (c, c) and (c, a) for transitive

∴ The relation now becomes

R = {(a, a), (b, b), (a, c), (c, c), (c, a)}

∴ R is equivalence relation.
