Question

Let A = {1, 2, 3} and B = {(1, 2), (2, 3), (1, 3)} be a relation on A. Then, R is ________________ .

  • neither symmetric nor transitive

  • transitive

  • none of these

Solution

transitive

Reflexivity : Since (1, 1∉ B, B is not reflexive on A.

Symmetry : Since (1, 2∈ B but (2, 1∉ , B is not symmetric on A.

Transitivity : Since (1, 2)B, (2, 3)B and (1, 3)B, B is transitive on A.
