उत्तर
A = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}
R = {(x, y) : y is divisible by x}
We know that any number (x) is divisible by itself.
⇒ (x, x) ∈ R
∴ R is reflexive.
Now, (2, 4) ∈ R ....[As 4 is divisible by 2.]
But (4, 2) ∉ R ....[As 2 is not divisible by 4.]
∴ R is not symmetric.
Let (x, y), (y, z) ∈ R. Then, y is divisible by x and z is divisible by y.
∴ z is divisible by x.
⇒ (x, z) ∈ R
∴ R is transitive.
Hence, R is reflexive and transitive but not symmetric.
