Question

For the set A = {1, 2, 3}, define a relation R on the set A as follows:
R = {(1, 1), (2, 2), (3, 3), (1, 3)}
Write the ordered pairs to be added to R to make the smallest equivalence relation.

Solution

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

As, (a, a) ∈ R, for all values of a∈ A

So, R is a reflexive relation

R can be a symmetric and transitive relation only when element (3, 1) is added

Hence, the ordered pairs to be added to R to make the smallest equivalence relation is (3, 1).
