उत्तर

R = {(x, y) : x – y is an integer}

Now, for every x ∈ Z, (x, x) ∈ R as x – x = 0 is an integer.

∴ R is reflexive.

Now, for every x, y ∈ Z, if (x, y) ∈ R, then x – y is an integer.

⇒ –(x – y) is also an integer.

⇒ (y – x) is an integer.

∴ (y, x) ∈ R

∴ R is symmetric.

Now, let (x, y) and (y, z) ∈ R, where x, y, z ∈ Z. 

⇒ (x – y) and (y – z) are integers.

⇒ x – z = (x – y) + (y – z) is an integer.

∴ (x, z) ∈ R

∴ R is transitive.

Hence, R is reflexive, symmetric and transitive.
