Solution
Let us define a relation R in R as aRb if a ≥ b. Then R is reflexive, transitive but not symmetric.
Explanation:
Given that, aRb if a ≥ b
⇒ aRa
⇒ a ≥ a which is true.
Let aRb, a ≥ b, then b ≥ a which i not true,
So R is not symmetric.
But aRb and bRc
⇒ a ≥ b and b ≥ c
⇒ a ≥ c
Hence, R is transitive.
