Question
Let R = {(a, a), (b, b), (c, c), (a, b)} be a relation on set A = a, b, c. Then, R is:
  1. Identify relation.
  2. Reflexive.
  3. Symmetric.
  4. Antisymmetric.

Answer

  1. Reflexive.
Solution:

Reflexivity: Since $(\text{a, a})\in\text{R}\ \forall\ \text{a}\in\text{A},$ R is reflexive on A.

Symmetry: Since $(\text{a, b})\in\text{R}$ but $(\text{b, a})\notin\text{R,}$ is not symmetric on A.

⇒ R is not antisymmetric on A.

Also, R is not an identity relation on A.
