Question
Let R be a relation from N to N defined by $\text{R}=\{(\text{a, b}):\text{a, b}\in\text{N and a}=\text{b}^2\}.$ Are the following statement true?
$(\text{a, b})\in\text{R and (b, c)}\in\text{R}\Rightarrow \text{(a, c)}\in\text{R}$
$(\text{a, b})\in\text{R and (b, c)}\in\text{R}\Rightarrow \text{(a, c)}\in\text{R}$
