Options
- Areflexive but neither symmetric nor transitive.
- Bsymmetric and transitive.
- Creflexive and symmetric,
- Dreflexive and transitive.
Correct answer
D. reflexive and transitive.
Step-by-step solution
\mathrm{R}=\left\{(x, y): x, y \in \mathrm{N}\right. and \left.x^2-4 x y+3 y^2=0\right\}x^2-4 x y+3 y^2=0 \Rightarrow(x-y)(x-3 y)=0 \therefore x=yx=3 y \therefore \quad \mathrm{R}=\{(1,1),(3,1),(2,2),(6,2),(3,3), (9,3), \ldots \ldots\}(1,1),(2,2),(3,3), \ldots \ldots\mathrm{R}(3,1)R(1,3)\mathrm{R}\mathrm{R}(3,1) \in R(1,1) \in R \Rightarrow(3,1) \in R (6,2) \in \mathrm{R} and (2,2) \in \mathrm{R} \Rightarrow(6,2) \in \mathrm{R}(a, b) \in \mathrm{R}(b, c) \in \mathrm{R} \Rightarrow(a, c) \in \mathrm{R}\mathrm{R} is transitive.
