उत्तर
We observe the following properties of R.
Reflexivity :
Let a be an arbitrary element of Z. Then,
a ∈ R
Clearly, a+a = 2a is even for all a ∈ Z.
⇒ (a, a) ∈ R for all a ∈ Z
So, R is reflexive on Z.
Symmetry :
Let (a, b) ∈ R
⇒ a+b is even
⇒ b+a is even
⇒ (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 even
Now, let a+b = 2x for some x ∈ Z
and b+c = 2y for some y ∈ Z
Adding the above two, we get
a+2b +c = 2x + 2y
⇒ a+c = 2 (x+y−b), which is even for all x, y, b ∈ Z
Thus, (a, c) ∈ R
So, R is transitive on Z.
Hence, R is an equivalence relation on Z

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.
- Ravi wishes to form all the relations possible from B to G. How many such relations are possible?
