Binary relationship exists when there are two
types of entity and we call them a degree of relationship is 2. Or in
other words, in a relation when two entity sets are participating then
such type of relationship is known as a binary relationship.
Example: We have two entity types ‘Student’ and ‘ID’ where each
‘Student’ has his ‘ID’. So, here two entity types are associating we can
say it is a binary relationship. Also, one ‘Student’ can have many
‘daughters’ but each ‘daughter’ should belong to only one ‘father. We
can say that it is a one-to-many binary relationship .
