Let a relation R be defined by R=4, 5; 1, 4; 4, 6; 7, 6; 3, 7 then R-1oR is
1, 1, 4, 4, 4, 7, 7, 4, 7, 7, 3, 3
1, 1, 4, 4, 4, 7, 3, 3
1, 5, 1, 6, 3, 6
None of these
We first find R-1oR , we have
R-1=5, 4; 4, 1; 6, 4; 6, 7, 7, 3. We now obtain the elements of R-1oR
we first pick the element of R and then of R-1. Since 4, 5∈R and 5, 4∈R-1, we have
4, 4∈R-1oR
Similarly, 1, 4∈R, 4, 1∈R-1⇒1, 1∈R-1oR
4, 6∈R, 6, 4∈R-1⇒4, 4∈R-1oR,
4, 6∈R, 6, 7∈R-1⇒4, 7∈R-1oR
7, 6∈R, 6, 4∈R-1⇒7, 4∈R-1oR,
7, 6∈R, 6, 7∈R-1⇒7, 7∈R-1oR
3, 7∈R, 7, 3∈R-1⇒3, 3∈R-1oR,
Hence, R-1oR=1, 1; 4, 4; 4, 7; 7, 4, 7, 7; 3, 3.
