R on the set {1,2,3} be defined by R={(1,2)}
It is clear that R is transitive.
a homogeneous relation R over a set X is transitive if for all elements a,b,c in X , whenever R relates a to b and b to c, then R also relates a to c.

If a relation R on the set {1, 2, 3} be defined by R={(1, 1)}, then R is reflexive and symmetric
Given:
If a relation R on the set {1, 2, 3} be defined by R={(1, 1)},
To find:
R is what
Solution:
a = 1
b = 1
For a set to be reflexive (a,a)∈ R
In this case a is 1 and (1,1) ∈ R
So the condition holds true and it is reflexive.
For R to be symmetric,
(a,b) ∈ R and (b,a) ∈R
In this case, (a,b) = (1,1) which belongs to R
and (b,a) = (1,1) which also belogs to R
So, R is symmetric.
Hence R is symmetric and reflexive.
