(i) Given, R = {(a, b): a, b ∈ Z, a – b is an integer}
Let a ∈ Z, then a – a ∈ Z
∴ (a, a) ∈ R
∴ R is reflexive.
Let (a, b) ∈ R
∴ a – b ∈ Z
∴ -(a – b) ∈ Z, i.e., b – a ∈ Z
∴ (b, a) ∈ R
∴ R is symmetric.
Let (a, b) and (b, c) ∈ R
∴ a – b ∈ Z and b – c ∈ Z
∴ (a – b) + (b – c) ∈ Z
∴ a – c ∈ Z
∴ (a, c) ∈ R
∴ R is transitive.

(ii) Given, R = {(a, b) : a, b ∈ N, a + b is even}
Let a ∈ N, then a + a = 2a, which is even.
∴ (a, a) ∈ R
∴ R is reflexive.
Let (a, b) ∈ R
∴ a + b is even
∴ b + a is even
∴ (b, a) ∈ R
∴ R is symmetric.
Let (a, b) and (b, c) ∈ R
∴ a + b and b + c is even
Let a + b = 2x and b + c = 2y for x, y ∈ N
∴ (a + b) + (b + c) = 2x + 2y
∴ a + 2b + c = 2(x + y)
∴ a + c = 2(x + y) – 2b = 2(x + y – b)
∴ a + c is even ……..[∵ x, y, b ∈ N, x + y – b ∈ N]
∴ (a, c) ∈ R
∴ R is transitive.

Let a ∈ N, then a divides a.
∴ (a, a) ∈ R
∴ R is reflexive.
Let a = 2 and b = 8, then 2 divides 8
∴ (a, b) ∈ R
But 8 does not divide 2.
∴ (b, a) ∉ R
∴ R is not symmetric.
Let (a, b) and (b, c) ∈ R
∴ a divides b and b divides c.
Let b = ax and c = by for x, y ∈ N.
∴ c = (ax) y = a(xy)

∴ (a, a) ∈ R
∴ R is reflexive.
Let a = 3 and b = 1,
then a²– 4ab + 3b²= 9 – 12 + 3 = 0
∴ (a, b) ∈ R
Consider, b²– 4ba + 3a²= 1 – 12 + 9 = -2 ≠ 0
∴ (b, a) ∉ R
∴ R is not symmetric.
Let a = 3, b = 1 and c = ,
then a²– 4ab + 3b²= 9 – 12 + 3 = 0 and
b²– 4bc + 3c²= 1 – + = 1 – 1 = 0
∴ we get (a, b) and (b, c) ∈ R.
Consider, a²– 4ac + 3c²= 9 – 4 + = ≠ 0
∴ (a, c) ∉ R
∴ R is not transitive.

(v) Given, R = {(a, b) : a is sister of b and a, b ∈ G = Set of girls}

Let (a, b) ∈ R
∴ ‘a’ is a sister of ‘b’.
∴ ‘b’ is a sister of ‘a’.
∴ (b, c) ∈ R
∴ R is symmetric.
Let (a, b) and (b, c) ∈ R
∴ ‘a’ is a sister of ‘b’ and ‘b’ is a sister of ‘c’
∴ ‘a’ is a sister of ‘c’.
∴ (a, c) ∈ R
∴ R is transitive.

(vi) Given, R = {(a, b) : Line a is perpendicular to line b in a plane}
Let a be any line in the plane, then a cannot be perpendicular to itself.
∴ (a, a) ∉ R
∴ R is not reflexive.
Let (a, b) ∈ R
∴ a is perpendicular to b.
∴ b is perpendicular to a.
∴ (b, a) ∈ R.
∴ R is symmetric.
Let (a, b) and (b, c) ∈ R.
∴ a is perpendicular to b and b is perpendicular to c.
∴ a is parallel to c.
∴ (a, c) ∉ R
∴ R is not transitive.

(vii) Given, R = {(a, b) : a, b ∈ R, a < b}
Let a ∈ R, then a ≮ a.
∴ (a, a) ∉ R
∴ R is not reflexive.
Let a = 1 and b = 2, then 1 < 2
∴ (a, b) ∈ R
But 2 ≮ 1
∴ (b, a) ∉ R
∴ R is not symmetric.
Let (a, b) and (b, c) ∈ R
∴ a < b and b < c
∴ a < c
∴ (a, c) ∈ R
∴ R is transitive.

(viii) Given, R = {(a, b) : a, b ∈ R, a ≤ b³}
Let a = -3, then a³= -27.
Here, a ≮ a
∴ (a, a) ∉ R
∴ R is not reflexive.
Let a = 2 and b = 9, then b³= 729
Here, a < b³
∴ (a, b) ∈ R
Consider, a3 = 8
Here, b ≮ a³
∴ (b, a) ∉ R
∴ R is not symmetric.
Let a = 10, b = 3, c = 2,
then b³= 27 and c³= 8
Here, a < b³and b < c³.
∴ (a, b) and (b, c) ∈ R
But a ≮ c³
∴ (a, c) ∉ R.
∴ R is not transitive.
