उत्तर

We observe the following relations of relation R.

Reflexivity : 

Let a be an arbitrary element of R. Then,

a−a=0=0 × 3

⇒ a−a is divisible by 3

⇒ (a, a) ∈ R for all a ∈ Z

So, R is reflexive on Z.

Symmetry :

Let (a, b) ∈ R

⇒ a−b is divisible by 3

⇒ a−b 3p for some p ∈ Z

⇒ b−a =3 (−p)

Here, −p ∈ Z

⇒ b−a is divisible by 3

⇒ (b, a) ∈ R for all a, b ∈ Z

So, R is symmetric on Z.

Transitivity:

Let (a, b) and (b, c) ∈ R

⇒ a−b and b−c are divisible by 3

⇒ a−b=3p for some p ∈ Z

and b− c = 3q for some q ∈ Z

Adding the above two, we get

  a − b + b− c= 3p+ 3q

⇒ a−c =3 (p+q)

Here, p+q ∈ Z

⇒ a−c is divisible by 3

⇒ (a, c) ∈ R for all a, c ∈ Z

So, R is transitive on Z.

Hence, R is an equivalence relation on Z.
