Solution

A relation R on (1, 2, 3) is given by R = {(1, 1), (2, 2), (1, 2), (3, 3), (2, 3)}. Then the relation R is reflexive.

Explanation:

Let A = {1, 2, 3}

Relation on A

R = {(1, 1), (2, 2), (1, 2), (3, 3), (2, 3)}

∵ Every element of set A is related to itself

(1, 1), (2, 2), (3, 3) ∈ R

`\implies` R is reflexive.

Also (1, 2) ∈ R but (2, 1) ∉ R

So R is not symmetric

And (1, 2) ∈ R and (2, 3) ∈ R but (1, 3) ∉ R

So R is not transitive.
