n (R1 ) = 66

R1 ∩ R2 = {(1, 1), (2, 2), … (20, 20)}

n (R1 ∩ R2 ) = 20

n (R1 − R2 ) = n (R1 ) − n (R1 ∩ R2 )

Q4

Let S = {1, 2, 3, … , 10}

R = {(A, B) : A ∩ B ≠ ϕ; A, B ∈ M}

For Reflexive,

M is subset of ' S '

So ϕ ∈ M
for ϕ ∩ ϕ = ϕ

⇒ but relation is A ∩ B ≠ ϕ
So it is not reflexive.

For symmetric,
ARB A ∩ B ≠ ϕ,

⇒ BRA ⇒ B ∩ A ≠ ϕ,

So it is symmetric.

For transitive,

If A = {(1, 2), (2, 3)}

B = {(2, 3), (3, 4)}

C = {(3, 4), (5, 6)}

ARB \& BRC but A does not relate to C

So it not transitive

Q5

(a, b)R(a, b) as ab – ab = 0

Therefore reflexive

Let (a, b)R(c, d) ⇒ ad − bc is divisible by 5 ⇒ bc− ad is divisible by 5 ⇒ (c, d)R(a, b)

Therefore symmetric

Relation not transitive as (3,1)R(10,5) and

(10,5)R(1,1) but (3,1) is not related to (1,1)
