Question

Test whether the following relation R2 is (i) reflexive (ii) symmetric and (iii) transitive:

R2 on Z defined by (a, b) ∈ R2 ⇔ |a – b| ≤ 5

Sum

Solution

Reflexivity:-

Let a be an arbitrary element of R2. Then,

∈ R2

⇒ a≤ 5

So, R1 is reflexive.

Symmetry:-

Let (a, b)  ∈ R2

⇒ |ab≤ 5                    Since, |ab| = |ba]

⇒ |ba≤ 5

⇒ (b, a∈ R2

So, R2 is symmetric.

Transitivity:-

Let (1, 3∈ R2 and (3, 7R2

|13|5 and |37|5

But |175 

⇒ (1,7∉ R2

So, R2 is not transitive.
