Let R = (1,2),(2,3),(3,3) be a relation defined on the set 1,2,3,4 . Then the minimum number of elements, needed to be added in R so that R becomes an equivalence relation, is:
Options
- A10
- B7
- C8
- D9
Correct answer
B. 7
Step-by-step solution
A= 1,2,3,4 For relation to be reflexive R = (1,2),(2,3),(3,3) Minimum elements added will be (1,1),(2,2),(4,4)(2,1)(3,2)(3,2)(3,1)(1,3) Minimum number of elements =7
