If R is a relation on the set A={1,2,3} ...

If R is a relation on the set `A={1,2,3}` given by `R={(1,1),(2,2),(3,3)}`, then R is

A

symmetric only

B

reflexive only

C

an equivalence relation

D

transitive only

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Clearly, R is the identify relation on set {1, 2, 3} and the identity relation is always an equivalence relation. Hence, R is an equivalence relation.
