उत्तर

(i) Reflexive:

R = {(a, b) : a ≤ b}

Clearly, (a, a) ∈ R as a = a.

∴ R is reflexive.

(ii) Symmetric:

Now, (2, 4) ∈ R, as 2 < 4.

But (4, 2) ∉ R, as 4 is greater than 2.

∴ R is not symmetric.

(iii) Transitive:

Now, let (a, b), (b, c) ∈ R.

Then, a ≤ b and b ≤ c

⇒ a ≤ c

⇒ (a, c) ∈ R

∴ R is transitive.

Hence, R is reflexive and transitive but not symmetric.
