Question

In the set Z of all integers, which of the following relation R is not an equivalence relation ?

Options

  • x R y : if x ≤ y

  • x R y : if x = y

  • x R y : if x − y is an even integer

  • x R y : if x ≡ y (mod 3)

Solution

x R y : if x ≤ y

Clearly, R is not symmetric because x < y does not imply y < x.

Hence, (a) is not an equivalence relation.
