उत्तर

Let A = {5, 6, 7}

⇒ And the relation R = {(5, 6), (6, 5)}

The relation R is not reflexive because (5, 5), (6, 6), and (7, 7) ∉ R.

∴ R is not reflexive.

⇒ Now, since (5, 6) ∈ R and (6, 5) ∈ R.

∴ R is symmetric.

⇒ (5, 6), (6, 5) ∈ R, but (5, 5) ∉ R

∴ R is not transitive. 

Hence, the relation R is symmetric but neither reflexive nor transitive.
