Let $R = \{(1, 3), (4, 2), (2, 4), (2, 3), (3, 1)\}$ be a relation on the set $A = \{1, 2, 3, 4\}$. The relation $R$ is:
(A) a function
(B) transitive
(C) not symmetric
(D) reflexive
Key: C
Sol:
Sol:
To determine if the relation $R$ is symmetric, we need to check if for every $(x, y)$ in $R$, the pair $(y, x)$ is also in $R$.
$R = \{(1, 3), (4, 2), (2, 4), (2, 3), (3, 1)\}$.
We have $(1, 3)$ in $R$, and $(3, 1)$ is also in $R$.
We have $(4, 2)$ in $R$, but $(2, 4)$ is also in $R$.
However, we have $(2, 3)$ in $R$, but $(3, 2)$ is not in $R$.
Since there exists a pair $(2, 3)$ in $R$ such that $(3, 2)$ is not in $R$, the relation $R$ is not symmetric.
Therefore, the correct answer is Option C: $R$ is not symmetric.

Let $R = \{(3, 3), (6, 6), (9, 9), (12, 12), (6, 12), (3, 9), (3, 12), (3, 6)\}$ be a relation on the set $A = \{3, 6, 9, 12\}$. The relation is :
(A) reflexive and symmetric only
(B) an equivalence relation
(C) reflexive only
(D) reflexive and transitive only
Key: D
Sol:
Sol:
To determine the properties of the relation $R$, we need to check for reflexivity, symmetry, and transitivity.
Reflexivity: A relation is reflexive if $(a, a) \in R$ for all $a \in A$. Since $(3, 3), (6, 6), (9, 9),$ and $(12, 12)$ are all in $R$, the relation is reflexive.
Symmetry: A relation is symmetric if whenever $(a, b) \in R$, then $(b, a) \in R$. We have $(6, 12) \in R$, but $(12, 6) \notin R$. Thus, the relation is not symmetric.
Transitivity: A relation is transitive if whenever $(a, b) \in R$ and $(b, c) \in R$, then $(a, c) \in R$. We have $(3, 6) \in R$ and $(6, 12) \in R$, and $(3, 12) \in R$. Also, $(3, 6) \in R$ and $(6, 6) \in R$, and $(3, 6) \in R$. The relation appears to be transitive.
Therefore, the relation $R$ is reflexive and transitive, but not symmetric.
So, the correct answer is Option D: $R$ is reflexive and transitive only.

Let $W$ denote the words in the English dictionary. Define the relation $R$ by $R = {(x, y) ∈ W × W |$ the words $x$ and $y$ have at least one letter in common}. Then, $R$ is
(A) reflexive, symmetric and not transitive
(B) reflexive, symmetric and transitive
(C) reflexive, not symmetric and transitive
(D) not reflexive, symmetric and transitive
Key: A
Sol:
Sol:
To determine the properties of the relation $R$, we analyze reflexivity, symmetry, and transitivity.
Reflexivity: A word always shares at least one letter with itself. So, $(x, x) ∈ R$ for all $x ∈ W$. Therefore, $R$ is reflexive.
Symmetry: If a word $x$ has a letter in common with word $y$, then $y$ also has a letter in common with $x$. So, if $(x, y) ∈ R$, then $(y, x) ∈ R$. Therefore, $R$ is symmetric.
Transitivity: Consider the words 'cat', 'bat', and 'bee'. 'cat' and 'bat' share the letter 'a', so (cat, bat) ∈ R. 'bat' and 'bee' share the letter 'b', so (bat, bee) ∈ R. However, 'cat' and 'bee' do not share any common letters, so (cat, bee) ∉ R. Therefore, $R$ is not transitive.
Thus, the relation $R$ is reflexive, symmetric, and not transitive.

Let $R$ be the real line. Consider the following subsets of the plane $R \times R$: $S = {(x, y) : y=x+1 ext{ and } 0<x<2}$ $T = {(x, y) : x - y ext{ is an integer }}$, Which one of the following is true ?
(A) Neither S nor T is an equivalence relation on R
(B) Both S and T are equivalence relation on R
(C) S is an equivalence relation on R but T is not
(D) T is an equivalence relation on R but S is not
Key: D
Sol:
Sol:
Given $S = {(x, y) : y = x + 1 ext{ and } 0 < x < 2}$. Since $x \ne x+1$ for any $x \in (0,2)$, we have $(x, x) \notin S$. Therefore, $S$ is not reflexive, and hence not an equivalence relation. Also $T = {(x, y) : x - y ext{ is an integer }}$. Since $x - x = 0$ is an integer for all $x \in R$, $T$ is reflexive. If $x - y$ is an integer, then $y - x$ is also an integer, so $T$ is symmetric. If $x - y$ is an integer and $y - z$ is an integer, then $(x - y) + (y - z) = x - z$ is also an integer. Therefore, $T$ is transitive. Hence $T$ is an equivalence relation.

(B) $B = C$
(C) $A \cap B = \phi$

Sol:
Given $A \cap B = A \cap C$ and $A \cup B = A \cup C$. From the principle of inclusion-exclusion: $|A \cup B| = |A| + |B| - |A \cap B|$ and $|A \cup C| = |A| + |C| - |A \cap C|$. Since $A \cup B = A \cup C$ and $A \cap B = A \cap C$, then $|A \cup B| = |A \cup C|$ and $|A \cap B| = |A \cap C|$. Thus, $|A| + |B| - |A \cap B| = |A| + |C| - |A \cap C|$. This simplifies to $|B| = |C|$. Since $A \cap B = A \cap C$ and $A \cup B = A \cup C$, it means that $B$ and $C$ contain the same elements and therefore are equal to each other ($B=C$).

Consider the following relations $R = \{(x, y) | x, y$ are real numbers and $x = wy$ for some rational number $w\}$; $S = \{(\frac{m}{n}, \frac{p}{q}) | m, n, p$ and $q$ are integers such that $n, q \neq 0$ and $qm = pn\}$. Then
(A) $R$ is an equivalence relation but $S$ is not an equivalence relation
(B) Neither $R$ nor $S$ is an equivalence relation
(C) $S$ is an equivalence relation but $R$ is not an equivalence relation
(D) $R$ and $S$ both are equivalence relations
Key: C
Sol:
Sol:
Relation $R$: $R = \{(x, y) | x, y$ are real numbers and $x = wy$ for some rational number $w\}$.
Reflexivity: For all $x$ in $R$, $x = 1 \cdot x$. Since $1$ is a rational number, every element is related to itself.
Symmetry: For all $x, y$ in $R$, if $x = wy$ for some rational $w$, then $y = \frac{1}{w}x$. However, if $w = 0$, then $\frac{1}{w}$ is undefined, and therefore, $R$ doesn't satisfy symmetry.
Transitivity: If $x = wy$ and $y = vz$ for some rational numbers $w$ and $v$, then $x = (wv)z$. Since the product of rational numbers is rational, if $x$ is related to $y$ and $y$ is related to $z$, then $x$ is related to $z$.
Therefore, $R$ is not an equivalence relation on $R$ since it does not satisfy the symmetry property.
Relation $S$: $S = \{(\frac{m}{n}, \frac{p}{q}) | m, n, p$ and $q$ are integers such that $n, q \neq 0$ and $qm = pn\}$.
Reflexivity: For all $\frac{m}{n}$, $\frac{m}{n} = \frac{m}{n}$. Since $n \neq 0$ and $m = m$, every element is related to itself.
Symmetry: For all $\frac{m}{n}, \frac{p}{q}$, if $qm = pn$, then $np = mq$. So if $\frac{m}{n}$ is related to $\frac{p}{q}$, then $\frac{p}{q}$ is related to $\frac{m}{n}$.
Transitivity: If $\frac{m}{n}R\frac{p}{q}$ and $\frac{p}{q}R\frac{r}{s}$ $\Rightarrow mq = np$ and $ps = rq$ $\Rightarrow mq \cdot ps = np \cdot rq$ $\Rightarrow ms = nr$ $\Rightarrow \frac{m}{n} = \frac{r}{s}$ $\Rightarrow \frac{m}{n}R\frac{r}{s}$.
So if $\frac{m}{n}$ is related to $\frac{p}{q}$ and $\frac{p}{q}$ is related to $\frac{r}{s}$, then $\frac{m}{n}$ is related to $\frac{r}{s}$. The relation $S$ is transitive.
Therefore, $S$ is an equivalence relation on the set of all fractions where the denominator is not zero.
In conclusion, $S$ is an equivalence relation but $R$ is not an equivalence relation.

Statement I: $A = \{(x, y) \in R \times R: y - x \text{ is an integer }\}$. Reflexivity: For all $x \in R$, $x - x = 0$ which is an integer. Symmetry: For all $x, y \in R$, if $y - x$ is an integer, then $x - y = -(y - x)$ is also an integer. Transitivity: For all $x, y, z \in R$, if $y - x$ and $z - y$ are integers, then $(z - y) + (y - x) = z - x$ is also an integer. Therefore, $A$ is an equivalence relation on $R$. Statement II: $B = \{(x,y) \in R \times R: x = \alpha y \text{ for some rational number } \alpha\}$. Reflexivity: For all $x \in R$, $x = 1 \cdot x$. Since $1$ is a rational number, every element is related to itself. Symmetry: For all $x, y \in R$, if $x = \alpha y$ for some rational $\alpha$, then $y = \frac{1}{\alpha} x$. However, if $\alpha = 0$, then $\frac{1}{\alpha}$ is undefined, and therefore, $B$ doesn't satisfy symmetry. Transitivity: If $x = \alpha y$ and $y = \beta z$ for some rational numbers $\alpha$ and $\beta$, then $x = (\alpha \beta) z$. Since the product of rational numbers is rational, if $x$ is related to $y$ and $y$ is related to $z$, then $x$ is related to $z$. Therefore, $B$ is not an equivalence relation on $R$ since it does not satisfy the symmetry property. In conclusion, Statement I is true, and Statement II is false.

For any element $x_i$ present in $X$, 4 cases arise while making subsets $Y$ and $Z$.
Case 1: $x_i \in Y, x_i \in Z \implies Y \cap Z \neq \emptyset$
Case 2: $x_i \in Y, x_i \notin Z \implies Y \cap Z = \emptyset$
Case 3: $x_i \notin Y, x_i \in Z \implies Y \cap Z = \emptyset$
Case 4: $x_i \notin Y, x_i \notin Z \implies Y \cap Z = \emptyset$
Therefore, for every element, the number of ways is $3$ for which $Y \cap Z = \emptyset$.
Thus, the total number of ways is $3 \times 3 \times 3 \times 3 \times 3 = 3^5$ since the number of elements in set $X$ is $5$.

$R_2 = {(a, b), (b, a), (c, c), (c, a), (a, a), (b, b), (a, c)}$.
Then:

Here, both $R_1$ and $R_2$ are symmetric, as for any $(x, y) \in R_1$, we have $(y, x) \in R_1$ and similarly for any $(x, y) \in R_2$, we have $(y, x) \in R_2$.
In $R_1$, $(b, c) \in R_1$, $(c, a) \in R_1$ but $(b, a) \notin R_1$.
Similarly, in $R_2$, $(b, a) \in R_2$, $(a, c) \in R_2$ but $(b, c) \notin R_2$.
Therefore, $R_1$ and $R_2$ are not transitive. Thus, $R_2$ is symmetric but not transitive.
