Solution

i. Since, 2 divides a – a.

∴ (a, a) ∈ R

∴ R is reflexive.

ii. Let (a, b) ∈ R

Then 2 divides a – b

∴ 2 divides b – a

∴ (b, a) ∈ R

∴ R is symmetric.

iii. Let (a, b) ∈ R, (b, c) ∈ R

Then, a – b = 2m, b – c = 2n,

∴ a – c = 2(m + n), where m, n are integers

∴ 2 divides a – c

∴ (a, c) ∈ R

∴ R is transitive.

Thus, R is an equivalence relation.
