For Q9 and Q10, a statement of assertion (A) is followed by a statement of reason (R). Choose
the correct answer out of the following choices.
(@) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
(b) Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
(c) A is true but R is false.
(@) Ais false but R is true.9. Assertion (A): In set A = {1, 2, 3} a relation R defined as R = {(1, 1), (2, 2)} is reflexive.
Reason (R): A relation R is reflexive in set A if (a, a) € R for alla ¢ A.
10. Assertion (A): In set A = {a, b, c} relation R in set A, given as R= {(a, c)} is transitive.
Reason (R): A singleton relation is transitive.
11. Show that the relation R in the set (1, 2, 3} given by R = {(1,1), (2, 2), (3, 3), (1, 2), (2, 3)} is
reflexive but neither symmetric nor transitive.
