For each of the following relations R defined on the set A of all triangles in a plane, determine whether R is reflexive, symmetric, or transitive. Justify your answers. a. aRb if and only if a is similar to b. b. aRb if and only if a is congruent to b.
Let and be lines in a plane. Decide in each case whether or not is an equivalence relation, and justify your decisions. if and only ifand are parallel. if and only ifand are perpendicular.
Let all of the lines named be coplanar. Make a drawing to reach a conclusion. a If rs and st, then _. b If ab and bc, then _.
For the sets gives in Exercise 9, is there a distributive relationship for union with respect with respect in intersection? That is does ABC=ABAC? A=1,2,3,4, B=2,4,6,8, and C=1,3,5,7,9.
In each of the following parts, a relation is defined on the set of all human beings. Determine whether the relation is reflective, symmetric, or transitive. Justify your answers. xRy if and only if x lives within 400 miles of y. xRy if and only if x is the father of y. xRy if and only if x is a first cousin of y. xRy if and only if x and y were born in the same year. xRy if and only if x and y have the same mother. xRy if and only if x and y have the same hair colour.
Label each of the following statements as either true or false. Let R be a relation on a nonempty set A that is symmetric and transitive. Since R is symmetric xRy implies yRx. Since R is transitive xRy and yRx implies xRx. Hence R is alsoreflexive and thus an equivalence relation on A.
