Question

In the set A equals open curly brackets 1 comma blank 2 comma blank 3 comma blank 4 comma blank 5 close curly brackets comma a relation R is defined by R equals open curly brackets open parentheses x comma y close parentheses colon x comma y element of A blank a n d blank x less than y close curly brackets. Then, R is

  1. Reflexive  
  2. Symmetric  
  3. Transitive  
  4. None of these  

The correct answer is: Transitive


    Since x not less-than x comma therefore R is not reflexive
    Also, x less than y does not imply that y less than x
    So R is not symmetric
    Let x blank R blank y and y blank R blank z. Then, x less than y and y less than z. rightwards double arrow x less than z blank i. e. blank x blank R blank z
    Hence, R is transitive
