Solution
(a) Here let us consider the three properties. They are:
Reflexive: For every element 1 in A, (1,1) is in R.
Symmetric: If an ordered pair (1,2) in R, (2,1) is in R.
Transitive: If ordered pairs (1,2) and (2,1) in R, (1,1) in is R.
Here R is reflexive and symmetric and we have to prove that it is not transitive.
