HINTS & SOLUTIONS

1. Answer (1) 6. Answer (4)

Total number of Relations from A to B is A = {3, 6, 9}

23×4 = 212
No. of Null relation = 1 (n1)
2. Answer (4)
No. of identity relation = 1 (n2)
5 – x = 2y
No. of universal relation = 1 (n3)
x should be odd and x < 5
So n1 + n2 + n3 = 3
3. Answer (2)
7. Answer (1)
 n(A  B) = 3, so it is clear that only those
ordered pairs will be common in (A × B) and Given relation is transitive
(B × A) which are formed from these 3 common
8. Answer (2)
elements of A & B.

So n[(A × B)  (B × A)] = 3 × 3 = 9 (x, y)R  x + y is a prime number

4. Answer (4) (y, x)R  (y + x) is a prime number

Total number of relations = 25 × 3 = 215 If x + y is a prime number, then y + x is also a prime

number
5. Answer (3)

Total number of ordered pairs = 4 × 4 = 16  if (x, y)R, then (y, x)R

10. Answer (4) So, It is not transitive relation

Every identity and universal relation on a non-void 12. Answer (4)
set A is an equivalence relation
 A = {a, b, c} & R = {(a, a), (b, b),(c, c)}
If R = R–1, then R is a symmetric relation

11. Answer (4)  Each element of A is related to itself so it is

 1 reflexive, symmetric and transitive
R = ( x, y ) :| x – y |   x, y  R

13. Answer (64)
(set of real number)
Number of relation = 2(3)(2) = 26 = 64
1
 | x – x |= 0   reflexive relation 14. Answer (6)
2

1 A × A = {(1, 1), (2, 2), (3, 3), (1, 2), (1, 3), (2, 1),
Also we can check (x, y)  R : |x – y|  (2, 3), (3, 1), (3, 2)}
2

1 Total number of symmetric relations

 | y – x |
2
= (3C0 + 3C1 + 3C2 + 3C3)  (3C0 + 3C1 + 3C2 + 3C3)
So, it is symmetric also
– 1 = 23  23 –1 = 26 –1
1 3
But if x = 0, y = , z = 15. Answer (4)
2 4

1 1 1 1 3 1 1 1 Option (4) is only a relation which is reflexive,

So, 0 – =  and 1 – = – =  symmetric & transitive. So it is equivalence
