Let $\rho_{1}$ and $\rho_{2}$ be two equivalence relations defined on a non-void set $S$. Then

  • A
    both $\rho_{1} \cap \rho_{2}$ and $\rho_{1} \cup \rho_{2}$ are equivalence relations
  • B
    $\rho_{1} \cap \rho_{2}$ is an equivalence relation but $\rho_{1} \cup \rho_{2}$ is not necessarily so.
  • C
    $\rho_{1} \cup \rho_{2}$ is an equivalence relation but $\rho_{1} \cap \rho_{2}$ is not so
  • D
    neither $\rho_{1} \cap \rho_{2}$ nor $\rho_{1} \cup \rho_{2}$ is an equivalence relation.
