Question

State the reason for the relation R on the set {1, 2, 3} given by R = {(1, 2), (2, 1)} to be transitive ?

Solution

Since (1, 2∈ R, (2, 1∈ R but (1, 1∉ R, R is not transitive on the set {1, 2, 3}.For R to be in a transitive relation, we must have (1, 1∈ R.

Read the following passage:

An organization conducted bike race under two different categories – Boys and Girls. There were 28 participants in all. Among all of them, finally three from category 1 and two from category 2 were selected for the final race. Ravi forms two sets B and G with these participants for his college project.
