On ℝ , consider the relation R defined as xRy if and only
if x ≤ y. Determine whether R is Reflexive , symmetric,
Antisymmetric and Transitive?
Answers
Answer:
it is reflexive and transitive
take some examples like 11 22 33 12 21 23 32 13 31
SOLUTION
TO DETERMINE
On ℝ , consider the relation R defined as xRy if and only if x ≤ y.
Determine whether R is Reflexive , symmetric, Antisymmetric and Transitive?
EVALUATION
On ℝ , consider the relation R defined as xRy if and only if x ≤ y
CHECKING FOR REFLEXIVE
Let x ∈ ℝ
Then x ≤ x
So we have (x, x) ∈ R
So R is Reflexive
CHECKING FOR SYMMETRIC
Since 2 < 3 then (2,3) ∈ R
But (3,2) ∉ R
So R is not symmetric
CHECKING FOR TRANSITIVE
Let x , y , z ∈ ℝ
Also let (x,y) ∈ R and (y,z) ∈ R
⇒ x ≤ y and y ≤ z
⇒ x ≤ z
⇒(x,z) ∈ R
Thus (x, y) ∈ R and (y, z) ∈ R implies (x, z) ∈ R
R is transitive
