Give an example of a relation which is reflexive and symmetric but not transitive.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Let `A=\{4,6,8\}`.

Define a relation `R` on `A` as:

`A=\{(4,4),(6,6),(8,8),(4,6),(6,4),(6,8),(8,6)\}`

Relation `R` is reflexive since for every a `\in A,(a, a) \in R i.e., (4,4),(6,6),(8,8)\} \in R.`
