Let $M$ denotes set of all $3 \times 3$ non singular matrices. Define the relation $R$ by

$R = \{ (A,B) \in M \times M$ : $AB = BA\} ,$ then $R$ is-

A

Reflexive, symmetric but not transitive

B

Reflexive, symmetric $\&$ transitive

C

Reflexive, transitive but not symmetric

D

Neither reflexive nor symmetric nor transitive

Solution

Reflexive because $\mathrm{A}^{2}=\mathrm{A}^{2}$

symmetric because $A B=B A \Rightarrow B A=A B$

not transitive because $A B=B A$

 and ${\rm{BC}} = {\rm{CB}} \Rightarrow {\rm{AC}} = {\rm{CA}}$
