Class 12 Maths · Relations And Functions · Short Answer #209

On A={0,1,2,3}, test R={(0,0),(0,1),(0,3),(1,0),(1,1),(2,2),(3,0),(3,3)} for the three relation properties.

✅ Step-by-Step Solution

Final Answer: Reflexive and symmetric, not transitive.
  1. All four diagonal pairs occur, so R is reflexive.
  2. The off-diagonal pairs occur with their reversals, proving symmetry. But (1,0),(0,3) occur while (1,3) does not, disproving transitivity.
  3. Therefore R is reflexive and symmetric but not transitive.

📋 CBSE Stepwise Marking Scheme

  • [0.5 marks] All four diagonal pairs occur, so R is reflexive.
  • [1 mark] The off-diagonal pairs occur with their reversals, proving symmetry. But (1,0),(0,3) occur while (1,3) does not, disproving transitivity.
  • [0.5 marks] Therefore R is reflexive and symmetric but not transitive.
