Relations And Functions
1. Test whether the following relation R1, R2, and R3 are (i) reflexive (ii)
symmetric and (iii) transitive:
i) R1 on Q0 defined by (a, b) ∈ R1 ⇔ a = 1/b.
ii) R2 on Z defined by (a, b) ∈ R2 ⇔ |a – b| ≤ 5
iii) R3 on R defined by (a, b) ∈ R3 ⇔ a2– 4ab + 3b2=0
2. Check whether the relation R defined in the set {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6} as R =
{(a, b): b = a +1} is reflexive, symmetric or transitive.
