उत्तर
(i) Reflexivity:
Let x be an arbitrary element of R.
Then, x ∈ R
⇒ x and x work at the same place,
Which is true since they are the same.
⇒ (x, x) ∈ R
∴ R is a reflexive relation.
(ii) Symmetry:
Let (x, y) ∈ R
⇒ x and y work at the same place.
⇒ y and x work at the same place.
⇒ (y, x) ∈ R
∴ R is a symmetric relation.
(iii) Transitivity:
Let (x, y) ∈ R and (y, z) ∈ R.
Then, x and y work at the same place.
y and z also work at the same place.
⇒ x, y and z all work at the same place.
⇒ x and z work at the same place.
⇒ (x, z) ∈ R
∴ R is a transitive relation.
Hence, R is reflexive, symmetric and transitive.
