उत्तर

Set A is the set of all books in the library of a college.

(i) Reflexive:

R = {(x, y) : x and y have the same number of pages}

Since (x, x) ∈ R as x and x have the same number of pages.

∴ R is reflexive

(ii) Symmetric:

Let (x, y) ∈ R

⇒ x and y have the same number of pages.

⇒ y and x have the same number of pages.

⇒ (y, x) ∈ R

∴ R is symmetric.

(iii) Transitive:

Now, let (x, y) ∈ R and (y, z) ∈ R.

⇒ x and y have the same number of pages and y and z have the same number of pages.

⇒ x and z have the same number of pages.

⇒ (x, z) ∈ R

∴ R is transitive.

Hence, R is an equivalence relation.

An organization conducted a bike race under 2 different categories-boys and girls. Totally there were 250 participants. Among all of them finally, three from Category 1 and two from Category 2 were selected for the final race. Ravi forms two sets B and G with these participants for his college project. Let B = {b1,b2,b3} G={g1,g2} where B represents the set of boys selected and G the set of girls who were selected for the final race.

Ravi decides to explore these sets for various types of relations and functions.
