संबंध $\mathrm{R}=\{(\mathrm{a}, \mathrm{b}): \operatorname{gcd}(\mathrm{a}, \mathrm{b})=1,2 \mathrm{a} \neq \mathrm{b}, \mathrm{a}, \mathrm{b} \in \mathbb{Z}\}$ :

A

 संक्रामक है परन्तु स्वतुल्य नहीं है

B

 सममित है परन्तु संक्रामक नहीं है

C

स्वतुल्य है परन्तु सममित नहीं है

D

न तो सममित है न ही संक्रामक है

Solution

Reflexive : $(a, a) \Rightarrow \operatorname{gcd}$ of $(a, a)=1$

Which is not true for every a $\epsilon Z$.

Symmetric:

Take $a =2, b =1 \Rightarrow \operatorname{gcd}(2,1)=1$

Also $2 a=4 \neq b$

Now when $a =1, b =2 \Rightarrow \operatorname{gcd}(1,2)=1$

Also now $2 a =2= b$

Hence $a=2 b$

$\Rightarrow R$ is not Symmetric

Transitive:

Let $a =14, b =19, c =21$

$\operatorname{gcd}( a , b )=1$

$\operatorname{gcd}(b, c)=1$

$\operatorname{gcd}( a , c )=7$

Hence not transitive

$\Rightarrow R$ is neither symmetric nor transitive.
