Let $R\left\{(x, y): x^2+y^2=1, x, y \in R\right\}$ be a relation in R. The relation R is :
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
We have $R=\left\{(x, y): x^2+y^2=1 ; x, y \in R\right\}$
$4 \in abd(4) 2+(4) 2=32 \neq 1$ ∴ $(4,4) \notin R$
⇒ R is not reflexive.
Let $(x, y) \in R$ ∴ $x^2+y^2=1$
$\Rightarrow y^2+x^2=1 \Rightarrow(y, x) \in R$
⇒ R is symmetric
$(0,1),(1,0) \in R$ because
(0)2 + (1)2 = 1 and (1)2 + (0)2 = 1
Also $(0) 2+(0) 2=0 \neq 1$ ⇒ $(0,0) \notin R$.
⇒ R is not transitive.
Hence (2) is the correct answer.
