SOLUTION
TO DETERMINE
Let relation R be defined as R={(A,B)|both A and B live in the same city}.Pick out the correct statement (s).
- R is symmetric.
- R is anti-symmetric.
- R is transitive.
- R is reflexive.
EVALUATION
Here the given relation R is defined by
R = { (A,B) | both A and B live in the same city }
CHECKING FOR REFLEXIVE
Clearly ( A, A) ∈ R
Since A and A always live in the same city
So (A, A) ∈ R
So R is Reflexive
CHECKING FOR SYMMETRIC
Let (A , B ) ∈ R
⇒A and B live in the same city
⇒B and A live in the same city
⇒(B , A) ∈ R
Thus (A , B ) ∈ R implies (B , A ) ∈ R
So R is symmetric
CHECKING FOR TRANSITIVE
Let (A , B ) ∈ R and (B , C ) ∈ R
⇒A , B live in the same city and B , C live in the same city
⇒ A and C live in the same city
⇒(A , C ) ∈ R
Thus (A , B ) ∈ R and (B , C ) ∈ R implies (A , C ) ∈ R
R is transitive
Hence R is an equivalence relation
CHECKING FOR ANTI SYMMETRIC
Let (A , B ) ∈ R and (B , A) ∈ R
⇒A , B live in the same city and B , A live in the same city
It does not mean A and B are same
So R is not anti-symmetric.
FINAL ANSWER
Hence the correct statements are
- R is symmetric
- R is transitive.
- R is reflexive
