MCQ
If $A = \{1, 2, 3\},$ then a relation $R = \{(2, 3)\}$ on $A$ is:
  • A
    Symmetric and transitive only.
  • B
    Symmetric only.
  • Transitive only.
  • D
    None of these.

Answer

Correct option: C.
Transitive only.
The relation $R$ is not reflexive because every element of $A$ is not related to itself. Also$, R$ is not symmetric since on interchanging the elements, the ordered pair in $R$ is not contained in it.
$R$ is transitive by default because there is only one element in it.
