8. Let R be any relation in the set A of human being in a town at particular time
Assertion (A) : If R = x, y : x is wife of y , Then R is transitive
Reason (R) : If R = x, y : x is father of y , then R is neither reflexive
nor symmetric, nor transitive

20. Case study
Riya and Maya are two friends studying in the same class. While doing their
mathematics project on Relation and Functions they have to collect the name of
fice metro cities and four cities other than metro cities of India; and present the
name of cities in the form of sets. They have collected the names of cities and
write the in the form of sets given as follows:
𝐴 = 𝐹𝑖𝑣𝑒 𝑀𝑒𝑡𝑟𝑜 𝑐𝑖𝑡𝑖𝑒𝑠 𝑜𝑓 𝐼𝑛𝑑𝑖𝑎
= 𝐷𝑒𝑙𝑖, 𝑀𝑢𝑚𝑏𝑎𝑖, 𝐵𝑎𝑛𝑔𝑎𝑙𝑜𝑟𝑒, 𝐶𝑎𝑙𝑐𝑢𝑡𝑡𝑎, 𝑝𝑢𝑛𝑒
𝐵 = 𝐵𝑖𝑎𝑟, 𝐴𝑔𝑟𝑎, 𝐽𝑎𝑖𝑝𝑢𝑟, 𝐴𝑚𝑒𝑑𝑎𝑏𝑎𝑑
1. How many functions exist from Set A to Set B?
2. Riya wants to know how many relations are possible from set A to set B?
3. Let R:𝐴 → 𝐴 defined by
𝑥, 𝑦 : 𝑇𝑜𝑡𝑎𝑙 𝑛𝑢𝑚𝑏𝑒𝑟 𝑜𝑓 𝑣𝑒𝑖𝑐𝑙𝑒𝑠 𝑖𝑛 𝐷𝑒𝑙𝑖 𝑖𝑠 𝑙𝑒𝑠𝑠𝑡𝑎𝑛 𝑡𝑜𝑡𝑎𝑙 𝑛𝑢𝑚𝑏𝑒𝑟 𝑜𝑓
𝑅=
𝑣𝑒𝑖𝑐𝑙𝑒𝑠 𝑖𝑛 𝑀𝑢𝑚𝑏𝑎𝑖
Then relation R is
4. How many reflexive relations can be defined on set B?
5. How many symmetric relations defined on set A?
21. Read the following passage and answer the following questions.
A general election of Lok Sabha is gigantic exercise. About 911 million people
were eligible to vote and voter turnout was about 67%, the highest ever.
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 𝑏𝑜𝑡 𝑢𝑠𝑒 𝑡𝑒𝑖𝑟 𝑣𝑜𝑡𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑟𝑖𝑔𝑡 𝑖𝑛 𝑔𝑒𝑛𝑒𝑟𝑎𝑙 𝑒𝑙𝑒𝑐𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 − 2019
i) Two neighbours 𝑋 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑌 ∈ 𝐼. 𝑋exercised his voting right while 𝑌 did not cast
her vote in general election – 2019. Is XRY? Give reason.
ii) Mr. ‘X’ and his wife ‘W’ both exercised their voting right in general election –
2019. Is it true that XRY and YRX? Give reason.
iii) a) Three friends 𝐹1 , 𝐹2 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝐹3 exercised their voting right in general election –
2019. Is it true that 𝐹1 , 𝑅𝐹2 , 𝐹2 , 𝑅𝐹3 ⟹ 𝐹1 , 𝑅𝐹3 ? Give reason.
(OR)
b) Mr. Shyam exercised his voting right in general election – 2019. then find the
equivalence class of Mr. Shyam.
22. Read the following passage and answer the following questions.
Sherlin and Danju are playing Ludo at home during Covid – 19. While rolling
the dice, Sherlin’s sister Raji observed and noted the possible outcomes of the
throw every time belongs to set 1,2,3,4,5 .Let A be the set of players while B be
the set of all possible outcomes.
𝐴 = 𝑆, 𝐷 , 𝐵 = 1,2,3,4,5,6
