Let 𝐼 be the set of all citizens of India who were eligible to exercise their
voting right in general election held in 2019. A relation ‘R’ is defined on 𝐼 as
follows :
𝑅 = {(𝑉1 , 𝑉2 ) ∶ 𝑉1 , 𝑉2 ∈ 𝐼 and both use their voting right in general election – 2019}
A. Two neighbors 𝑋 and 𝑌 ∈ 𝐼. 𝑋 exercised his voting right while 𝑌 did not
cast her vote in general election – 2019. Which of the following is true?
(a) (𝑋, 𝑌) ∈ 𝑅 (b) (𝑌, 𝑋) ∈ 𝑅 (c) (𝑋, 𝑋) ∉ 𝑅 (d) (𝑋, 𝑌) ∉ 𝑅
B. Mr. ‘𝑋’ and his wife ‘𝑊’ both exercised their voting right in general
election - 2019,Which of the following is true?
(a) both (𝑋, 𝑊) and (𝑊, 𝑋) ∈ 𝑅 (b) (𝑋, 𝑊) ∈ 𝑅 but (𝑊, 𝑋) ∉ 𝑅
(c) both (𝑋, 𝑊) and (𝑊, 𝑋) ∉ 𝑅 (d) (𝑊, 𝑋) ∈ 𝑅 but (𝑋, 𝑊) ∉ 𝑅

(b) (F1,F2) ∈ R, (F2,F3) ∈ R and (F1,F3) ∉ R
(c) (F1,F2) ∈ R, (F2,F2) ∈ R but (F3,F3) ∉ R
(d) (F1,F2) ∉ R, (F2,F3) ∉ R and (F1,F3) ∉ R
