Question

Let A = {1, 2, 3}, and let R1 = {(1, 1), (1, 3), (3, 1), (2, 2), (2, 1), (3, 3)}, R2 = {(2, 2), (3, 1), (1, 3)}, R3 = {(1, 3), (3, 3)}. Find whether or not each of the relations R1, R2, R3 on A is (i) reflexive (ii) symmetric (iii) transitive.

Solution

(1) R1
 Reflexivity:
 Here,

(1, 1), (2, 2), (3, 3R

So, R1 is reflexive.

Symmetry:

Here,

(2,1∈ R1,but (1,2∉ R1

So, R1 is not symmetric.

Transitivity :

Here, (2, 1R1 and (1, 3)R1, but (2, 3)R1 

So, R1 is not transitive.

(2) R2
 Reflexivity :

Clearly, (1, 1) and (3, 3)R2 

So, R2 is not reflexive.

Symmetry:

Here, (1, 3∈ R2 and (3, 1∈ R2

So, R2 is symmetric.

Transitivity :

Here(1,3∈ R2 and (3,1∈ R2 

But (3, 3)R2

So, R2 is not transitive.

(3) R3
Reflexivity :

Clearly(1,1∉ R3

So, R3 is not reflexive.

Symmetry:

Here, (1, 3∈ R3, but (3, 1∉ R3

So, R3 is not symmetric.

Transitivity :

Here, (1, 3∈ R3 and (3, 3∈ R3 

Also, (1, 3∈ R3

So, R3 is transitive.
