The correct Answer is:
To determine if the given relation is a function, we need to analyze the relationship defined by the set: \[ R = \{(x, y) : x \in A, y \in B, y \text{ is the area of a square of side } x\} \] where \( A \) is the set of measurements of length. ### Step 1: Define the Relation The relation states that for each \( x \) in set \( A \), there is a corresponding \( y \) in set \( B \) such that \( y \) is the area of a square with side length \( x \). The area \( y \) can be mathematically expressed as: \[ y = x^2 \] ### Step 2: Identify the Sets Let’s clarify what sets \( A \) and \( B \) represent. - Set \( A \) (measurements of length) can include any positive real numbers representing lengths (e.g., \( A = \{x_1, x_2, x_3, \ldots\} \)). - Set \( B \) (areas) will consist of the corresponding areas calculated from the lengths in set \( A \) (e.g., \( B = \{x_1^2, x_2^2, x_3^2, \ldots\} \)). ### Step 3: Check the Function Criteria For a relation to be a function, each input (or value from set \( A \)) must correspond to exactly one output (or value in set \( B \)). - For any given \( x \) in \( A \), the area \( y \) is calculated as \( y = x^2 \). - This means that for every specific value of \( x \), there is only one corresponding value of \( y \). ### Step 4: Conclusion Since each \( x \) in set \( A \) maps to exactly one \( y \) in set \( B \), we conclude that the relation is indeed a function. **Final Answer: Yes, it is a function.** ---
