Detailed Solution

Given: R={(a,b):a,bA,|ab| is divisible by 4} 
For Reflexivity:
For any aA
|aa|=0 which is divisible by 4
(a,a)R
So, R is reflexive
For Symmetry:
Let (a,b)R
|ab| is divisible by 4
|ba| is divisible by 4 [|ab|=|ba|]
(b,a)R
So, R is symmetric.
For Transitive:
Let (a,b)R and (b,c)R
|ab|is divisible by 4
|ab|=4kab=±4k,kZ (i) 
Also, |bc|is divisible by 4
|bc|=4mbc=±4m,mZ
Adding equations (i) and (ii)
a – b + b – c = ±4 (k + m)
⇒ a – c = ±4 (k + m)
|a – c | is divisible by 4,
⇒ (a, c) ϵ R
So, R is symmetric.
Therefore, R is reflexive, symmetric and transitive.
Now, Let x be an element of R such that (x, 1) ϵ R
Then | x – 1| is divisible by 4
x – 1 = 0, 4, 8, 12,
⇒ -x = 1, 5, 9 (∵ x ≤ 12)
∴ Set of all elements of A which are related to 1 are {1, 5, 9}.
Equivalence class of 2 i.e.
[2] = {(a, 2): a ϵ A, |a – 2| is divisible by 4}
⇒ | a – 2| = 4k(k is whole number, k ≤ 3) ⇒ a = 2, 6, 10
Therefore, set of all elements of A which are related to 1 are {1, 5, 9} and equivalence class [2] is {2, 6, 10}.

OR

Given: f(x)=xx21,xR
For one-one, f(x)=f¨(y)
xx2+1=yy2+1xy2+x=yx2+yxy2yx2=yxxy(yx)=yxxy=1x=1y
Since xy, therefore, f(x) is not one-one.
For onto, f(x)=y
        xx2+1    =y        x    =yx2+y    x2y+yx    =0
x cannot be expressed in terms of y
f(x) is not onto.
As g(x)=2x1
 fg(x)=f[g(x)]=f(2x1)=2x1(2x1)2+1=2x14x24x+2
Therefore, the function f:RR  defined by f(x)=xx21,xR is neither one-one nor onto has proved and for if g:RR is defined as g(x)=2x1then the fg(x)=2x14x24x+2.
