Q. 164.2( 12 Votes )
Let A = {1, 2, 3}
Answer :
This is because relation R is reflexive as (1, 1), (2, 2), (3, 3) ϵ R.
Relation R is symmetric as (1, 2), (2, 1) ϵ R and (1, 3), (3, 1) ϵ R.
But relation R is not transitive as (3, 1), (1, 2) ϵ R but (3, 2) R.
Now, if we add any one of the two pairs (3, 2) and (2, 3) (or both) to relation R,
Then, relation R will become transitive.
Therefore, the total number of desired relations is one.
