## Objective Type Questions

### Choose the Correct Answer from the Given Four Options in Each of the Examples 17 to 25

Question 17:

Let R be a relation on the set N of natural numbers defined by if divides . Then R is

(A) Reflexive and symmetric

(B) Transitive and symmetric

(C) Equivalence

(D) Reflexive, transitive but not symmetric

Answer:

The correct choice is (D) .

Since n divides , R is reflexive. R is not symmetric since is transitive since for whenever and , i.e.. , divides and divides , then will divide .

(D) None of these

Answer:

The correct choice is (B) .
