Sets Relations And Functions Question 52

Question: Let A = {1, 2, 3}, B = {1, 3, 5}. A relation $ R:A\to B $ is defined by R = {(1, 3), (1, 5), (2, 1)}. Then $ {R^{-1}} $ is defined by

Options:

A) {(1,2), (3,1), (1,3), (1,5)}

B) {(1, 2), (3, 1), (2, 1)}

C) None of these

D) {(1, 2), (5, 1), (3, 1)}

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: C

Solution:

  • $ (x,y)\in R\Leftrightarrow (y,x)\in {R^{-1}} $ ,
    $ \therefore $ $ {R^{-1}}={(3,1),(5,1),(1,2)} $ .
