Consider the following two binary relations on the set $A = \{a, b, c\}$: $R_1 = \{(c, a), (b, b), (a, c), (c, c), (b, c), (a, a)\}$ and $R_2 = \{(a, b), (b, a), (c, c), (c, a), (a, a), (b, b), (a, c)\}$. Then

  • A
    $R_2$ is symmetric but it is not transitive
  • B
    Both $R_1$ and $R_2$ are transitive
  • C
    Both $R_1$ and $R_2$ are not symmetric
  • D
    $R_1$ is not symmetric but it is transitive
