A. R is reflexive and symmetric but not transitive.
B. R is reflexive and transitive but not symmetric.
C. R is symmetric and transitive but not reflexive.
D. R is an equivalence relation.
Let R be the relation in the set {1, 2, 3, 4} given by R = {(1, 2), (2, 2), (1, 1), (4, 4), (1, 3), (3, 3), (3, 2)}. Choose the correct answer.
A. R is reflexive and symmetric but not transitive.
B. R is reflexive and transitive but not symmetric.
C. R is symmetric and transitive but not reflexive.
D. R is an equivalence relation.
Solution and Explanation
R = {(1, 2), (2, 2), (1, 1), (4, 4), (1, 3), (3, 3), (3, 2)}
It is seen that (a, a) ∈ R, for every a ∈{1, 2, 3, 4}.
∴ R is reflexive.
It is seen that (1, 2) ∈ R, but (2, 1) ∉ R.
∴R is not symmetric.
Also, it is observed that (a, b), (b, c) ∈ R ⇒ (a, c) ∈ R for all a, b, c ∈ {1, 2, 3, 4}.
∴ R is transitive.
Hence, R is reflexive and transitive but not symmetric.
The correct answer is B.

Concepts Used:
Types of Relation
TYPES OF RELATION
Empty Relation
Relation is said to be empty relation if no element of set X is related or mapped to any element of X i.e, R = Φ.
Universal Relation
A relation R in a set, say A is a universal relation if each element of A is related to every element of A.
R = A × A.
Identity Relation
Every element of set A is related to itself only then the relation is identity relation.
Inverse Relation
Let R be a relation from set A to set B i.e., R ∈ A × B. The relation R-1 is said to be an Inverse relation if R-1 from set B to A is denoted by R-1
Reflexive Relation
If every element of set A maps to itself, the relation is Reflexive Relation. For every a ∈ A, (a, a) ∈ R.
Symmetric Relation
A relation R is said to be symmetric if (a, b) ∈ R then (b, a) ∈ R, for all a & b ∈ A.
Transitive Relation
A relation is said to be transitive if, (a, b) ∈ R, (b, c) ∈ R, then (a, c) ∈ R, for all a, b, c ∈ A
Equivalence Relation
A relation is said to be equivalence if and only if it is Reflexive, Symmetric, and Transitive.
