Question

Let A = {a, b, c} and the relation R be defined on A as follows:
R = {(a, a), (b, c), (a, b)}.
Then, write minimum number of ordered pairs to be added in R to make R reflexive and transitive

Sum

Solution

Given relation, R = {(a, a), (b, c), (a, b)}.

To make R reflexive we must add (b, b) and (c, c) to R.

Also, to make R transitive we must add (a, c) to R.

So, minimum number of ordered pairs to be added is 3.
