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.
Here 1 is related to 2.
there are two possible cases :
Case I : When 1 is not related to 3, then the relation R1 = {(1, 1), (1,2), (2, 1), (2, 2), (3, 3)} is only equivalence relation containing (1,2).
Case II : When 1 is related to 3, then
A x A = {(1, 1), (2, 2), (3, 3), (1, 2), (2, 1), (1, 3), (3, 1), (2, 3), (3, 2)} is the only equivalence relation containing (1, 2). there are two equivalence relations on A containing (1, 2). (B) is correct answer.
L.et A be the set of all 50 students of class X in a school. Let f : A → N be function defined by f (x) = roll number of student x. Show that f is one-one but not onto.
Check the injectivity and surjectivity of the following functions :
(i) f : N → N given by f (x) = x2
(ii) f : Z → Z given by f (x) = x2
(iii) f : R → R given by f (x) = x2 (iv) f : N → N given by f (x) = x3
(v) f : Z → Z given by f (x) = x3
