Types of Relation Equivalence Relations

Reflexive Relations (i) R is reflexive i.e. (a, a) ∈ R ∀ a ∈ A


If (a, a) ∈ R, ∀ a ∈ R (ii) R is symmetric i.e. (a, b) ∈ R ⇒ (b, a) ∈ R
(iii) R is transitive i.e. (a, b), (b, c) ∈ R ⇒ (a, c) ∈
Symmetric Relation R
If(x, y) ∈ R ⇒ (y, x) ∈ R Types of Functions

Identity functions : If f(x) = x, ∀ x ∈ A


Anti Symmetric Relations
If (a, b) ∈ R and (b, a) ∈ R ⇒ a = b

If A and B are finite sets and O (A) = m, O (B)

If O(A) = m, O(B) = n, then total number = n, m n.Then number of injection


of mappings from A to B is nm (oneone) from A to B is

If f : A 🠆 B is injective (one-one), then If f : A 🠆 B is surjective (onto), then


O(A) ≤ O(B). O(A) ≥ O(B)

If f : A 🠆 B is bijective (one-one onto), Let f : A 🠆 B and O(A) = )(B), then f is


then O(A) = O(B). one-one ⇔ it is onto.
