उत्तर
(i) Reflexive:
Let A = {1, 2, 3}
A relation R on A is defined as R = {(1, 2), (2, 1)}
It is seen that (1, 1), (2, 2), and (3, 3) ∉ R.
∴ R is not reflexive.
(ii) Symmetric:
Now, as (1, 2) ∈ R and (2, 1) ∈ R.
∴ R is symmetric.
(iii) Transitive:
Now, (1, 2) and (2, 1) ∈ R
However, (1, 1) ∉ R
∴ R is not transitive.
Hence, R is symmetric but neither reflexive nor transitive.
