ELEMENTS OF MODERN ALGEBRA
- Let A=R0, the set of all nonzero real numbers, and consider the following relations on AA. Decide in each case whether R is an equivalence relation, and justify your answers. (a,b)R(c,d) if and only if ad=bc. (a,b)R(c,d) if and only if ab=cd. (a,b)R(c,d) if and only if a2+b2=c2+d2. (a,b)R(c,d) if and only if ab=cd.arrow_forwardIn 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.arrow_forwardGive an example of a relation R on a nonempty set A that is symmetric and transitive, but not reflexive.arrow_forward
- Let be a relation defined on the set of all integers by if and only if sum of and is odd. Decide whether or not is an equivalence relation. Justify your decision.arrow_forwardDoes the relation is a brother of have a reflexive property consider one male? A symmetric property consider two males? A transitive property consider three males?arrow_forward2. In each of the following parts, a relation is defined on the set of all integers. Determine in each case whether or not is reflexive, symmetric or transitive.
