[21] RELATIONS AND MAPPING ; Syllabus : Relations and Mapping — To be done through arrow diagrams, leading to listing of the matching pairs. Classification of functions not included. Ordered Pair Two elements a and b listed in a specific order, form an ordered pair, denoted by @ b). In an ordered pair (a, 6), we call a as first component and 6 as second component. By changing the positions of the components, the ordered pair is changed. Thus, (2, 3) # (3, 2). Also, (a, 6) = (c, d) a =c andb =d. Thus, (x, y) = (6, 2) x = 5 andy = 2 Example 1. Given (a ~ 3, b + 2) = (1, 5), find a and b. Solution. @-3,b+2)=(1,5) @a-3=landb+2=5 @a=1+3andb=5-2 @a=4andb=3. “a= 4 and 6 =3. Example 2. Given (6, q + 4) = (p + 8, 8), find p and q. Solution. (,q¢+4)=(p+3,8) @5=p+3andg+4=8 #@p=5-S3andq=8-4 @p=2andg=4. vo p=2andq=4. Given (4a, 4) = (3a - 2, 2b + 1), find a and b. (4a, 4) = (8a - 2, 2b + 1) & 4a = 8a- 2 and 4 = 2641 @ 4a - 8a =- 2 and 2b=4-1 e@a=-2andb= 3, 2 Example 3. Solution. =-2andb= role Cartesian Product of Two Sets Let A and B be two non-empty sets. Then, their Cartesian product A x B is the set of all ordered pairs (a, b) such that a € A and b € B. te. Ax B= (a,b): ae Aandbe B) Let A = {8, 9} and B = {1, 3, 5, 7}. Example : a Then, A x B =((8, 1), (8, 8), (8, 5), (8, 7), (9, 1), @, 3), (9, 5), (9, D). f nll ordered Relation Let A and B be two non-empty sets. Then a relation R from A to B is the wet ; pairs (a, b) such thata « A, be B and a is associated with b according to a definite rule, If (a, 6) € R, we say that a is related to b and wo write alt. Clearly, every relation R from A to B ix a subset of A x B. ie, Ro A * i, Representation of a Relation ; a @) Roster Porm +A relation represented by the set of all ordered pairs contained in it is said to be in roster form. relation Ht from A to {1, 3, 4, 6, 9, 10, 12, 16), then a be represented in roster form an : Example: If A = (1, 2,8, 4) and B= B defined as ‘is a positive square root of can R=(Q, 0, @ 4, G, 9), (4, 16) @i) Arrow Diagrarh :Let R be a relation from A to B.

Domain and Range of a Relation Let R be relation from A to B. Then Domain (R) = Set of first components of all ordered pairs in R, Range (R) = Set of second components of all ordered pairs in R. If R= (1, D, (2, 4), (8, 9), (4, 16)) then find the domain and range of R. Example 4. Solution : Domain (R) = Set of all first components of all ordered pairs in R = (1, 2, 3,4). Range (R) = Set of all second components of all ordered pairs in R = {1, 4, 9, 16). Example 5, Let A= (3, 6, 7) and B= (3, 4, 6, 6). Let R be the relation, ‘is less than’ from A to B.

Then, a function or a mapping f from A to B is a rule which associates to each element x ¢ A, a unique element f (x) ¢ B, called the image of x. Iff is a mapping from A to B, we write f: A > B. Remarks : For f to be a mapping from A to B : (@ every clement in A must have its image in B. (ii) no element in A must have more than one images. Examples : @ Let A = (1, 2, 3, 4) and B = (1, 4, 9, 16, 25}. Consider the rule, f (x) =.x°, x ¢ A. This rule may be represented by the arrow-diagram given below. A 8 Clearly, each element in A has a unique image in B. So the rule given above is a mapping from A to B. Note : This mapping can be represented in the roster form as f= (1, D, @, 4), (, 9), (4, 16) (i) Let A = (4, 9, 16) and B = (-2, 2, 3, 4, 5). Consider the rule, f(x) = Jx,x¢ A. This rule may be represented by the arrow-diagram given below. A B Clearly, the element 4 € A has two images, namely — 2 and + 2 in B, -* So, the above rule is not a’ mapping from A to B. - Domain, Co-Domain and Range of a Mapping Let f be a mapping from A to B. Then, we define ; (a) Domain () = A (0) Co-domain () = B (c) Range (/) = Set of all images of elements of A Mapping as a Relation Let A and B be two non-empty sets and R be a relation from A to B. Then R is called a mapping from A to B, if domain (R) = A and no two different ordered pairs in R have the same first components. Examples : (@ Let A = (2, 3, 4) and B = (5, 6, 7, 8). Let {(2, 5), (3, 6), (4, 71. ‘Then domain (R) = (2, 3, 4) = A. ‘And, no two different ordered pairs in R have the same first components. «. Ris a mapping from A to B. (ii) Let A = (5, 7, 9) and B = (1, 3, 6). Let R = ((5, 0), (7, 3)) be a relation from A to B. Then domain (R) = (5, 7) # A. . Ris not a mapping from A to B. (iii) Let A = (2, 3, 4) and B = (8, 12). Let R = ((2, 8), (2, 12), (3, 12), (4, 12)). Then domain (R) = (2, 3, 4} = A. But two different ordered pairs, namely (2, 8) and (2, 12) have the same first components. <. R is not a mapping from A to B. Note : Every mapping from A to B is a relation from A to B. But, every relation is not a mapping. Example 1. Which of the following arrow-diagrams represents a mapping? eam = BA BOA 8 w (ii) Solution : ( For a mapping from A to B, each element in A must have a unique image in B. Since, in this diagram, c € A is not associated with any element of B. So, c e A has no image. .. The given diagram does not represent a mapping. (i) Clearly, a has a unique image x; & has a unique image x; c has a unique image z. ‘Thus, each element in A has a unique image in B. .. Given diagram represents a mapping. (iii) This diagram shows that an element, namely a in A is associated with two elements x and y of B. So, each element in A does not have a unique image in B. So, the given diagram does not represent a mapping. Example 2. Let A= {1, 2, 3, 4) and B = {1, 4, 7, 10, 13}. Consider the rule, f (x) = 8x - 2, x € A. (@ Show that fis a mapping from A to B.

In ordered pair (a, b), we call a as first component and 6 as second component. 2. 3. (a, b) = (, d) ea =candb=d. 4, For any two non-empty sets A and B, we define : Ax B=((a,b):a¢ Aandb¢ B). Any subset R of (A x B) is called a relation from A to B. 5. Let R be a relation from A to B. Then, Dom (R) = [a : (a, 6) € R}, Range (R) = (b : (a, b) © RI.
