2.Relations and Functions
easy

Let $A = \{1, 2, 3\}$. The total number of distinct relations that can be defined over $A$ is

A

${2^9}$

B

$6$

C

$8$

D

None of these

Solution

(a) $n(A \times A) = n(A).n(A) = {3^2} = 9$

So, the total number of subsets of $A \times A$ is ${2^9}$ and a subset of $A \times A$ is a relation over the set $A$.
