Relation and
Function
RELATION
A relation is any set of ordered pairs. The set of all the x- components of the
ordered pairs is called the domain of the relation and the set of all the y-
components is called the range.
Give the domain and range of the following relations:
1. {(1, 3), (2, 4), (5, 7), (6, 8)}
Domain: 1, 2, 5, 6
Range: 3, 4, 7, 8
2. {(-2, 4), (-1, 1), (-2, 0), (1, 5), (2, -2)}
Domain: -2, -1, 1, 2
Range: 4, 1, 0, 5, -2
A relation in which each member of the domain is paired
to exactly one member of the range is called function.
Which of the following relations are functions?
1. A= {(1, 2), (2, 3), (3, 4), (4, 5)}
2. B= {(1, 1), (2, 2), (3, 3), (4, 4)} FUNCTION
3. C= {(1, 0), (0, 1), (-1, 0), (0, -1)}FUNCTION
4. D= {(-2, 4), (-1, 1), (0, 0), (1, 1), (2,
NOT4)}

FUNCTION
Function can also be represented through mapping. In
this case, the relation or function is represented by the
set of all the connections by the arrows.

FUNCTION NOT A FUNCTION
A graph of a mathematical relation is said to be a function if any vertical line drawn
passing through the graph touches the graph at exactly one point.
A Function can be represented in five (5) different ways
fx={1,6,2,7,3,8,4,9,(5,10}
• Function in Ordered Pair.
• Function in Tabular Form.
X 1 8 6
y 7 4 5
fx=x,yy=x+5} and x={1,2,,3,4,5}
• Function in Set Notation / Open Sentence
In open sentence: y=x+5 such that x=1,2,3,4,5
Function in Arrow Diagram / Mapping Function in Graphical Form

TYPES OF FUNCTION
• One-to-One Correspondence
one number in is paired with only one
number in .
• Many-to-One Correspondence
many (more than 1) numbers in is paired with
the same number in .
• One-to-Many Correspondence
one number in is paired with different numbers
in .

APPLICATION/ ASSESSMENT :
Direction: Determine the following relation whether a function or not and state what kind of
correspondence being used.
1. {(2, 4), (-2, 4), ( 1, 1), (-1, 1), (3, 9), (-3, 9)}
2. 1. {(0, 1), (0, -1), ( 1, 2), (1, -2), (2, 3), (2, -3)}
3. 3x+4y = 10
4. x² - y² = 7
5. 8.
6. 9.
7. 10.
