उत्तर

Let A = {−5, −6}

The relation R on a set A is defined as follows:

R = {−5, −6), (−6, −5), (−5, −5)}

The relation R is not reflexive because (−6, −6) ∉ R.

∴ R is not reflexive.

⇒ The relation R is symmetric because (−5, −6) ∈ R and (−6, −5) ∈ R.

∴ R is symmetric.

⇒ And, if (−5, −6) and (−6, −5) ∈ R, then (−5, −5) ∈ R

∴ R is transitive.

Hence, the relation R is symmetric and transitive but not reflexive.
