问题1.证明关系R = {(a,b):ab可被3整除; a,b∈Z}是等价关系。
解决方案:
According to question, relation R = {(a,b): a-b is divisible by 3;, a, b ∈ Z}
We have to show that R is an equivalence relation.
(i) reflexibity:
let a = z
=> a – a = 0
=> 0 is divisible by 3
:. a is divisible by 3
(a, a) ∈ R,
Hence, relation R is reflexive.
(ii) symmetry:
Let a, b∈ Z and (a, b) ∈ R
=> a – b is divisible by 3
=> a – b = 3x, for some x ∈ Z
=> b -a = 3 (-x)
here, -x ∈ Z
:. b – a is divisible by 3
Hence, (b- a) ∈ R for all a, b ∈ Z
So, relation R is symmetric.
(iii) transitivity:
let (a, b) and (b, c) ∈ R
a – b and b – c is divisible by 3
a – b = 3x, for some x ∈ Z & (eqn. 1)
b – c = 3y, for some y ∈ Z (eqn. 2)
Adding the above equations 1 and 2, we get
a – c = 3(x + y)
here, x and y ∈ Z
so, a – c is divisible by 3
Hence, a – c ∈ R for all a, c ∈ Z
thus relation R is transitive.
As we know if a relation is reflexive, symmetric and transitive at the same time, then it is called an equivalence relation.
Therefore, Relation R is an equivalence relation.
问题2。证明由R = {(a,b):2除以a – b}给出的整数集合上的关系R是等价关系。
解决方案:
Given, R = {(a, b): 2 divides a – b} which is defined on Z
We have to show that relation R is an equivalence relation
(i) reflexibility :
let na be an arbitrary element on set Z
then a ∈ R
a – a = 0
=> 0 X 2 = 0
2 divides a – a
=> (a, a) ∈ R
:. Relation R is a reflexive relation.
Now, (ii) symmetric :
let (a, b) ∈ R
2 divides a – b
a – b = 2x for some x ∈ Z
b – a = 2 (- x) where – x ∈ Z
2 divides b – a
=> (b, a) ∈ R
and (a, b) ∈ R
therefore, relation R is symmetric.
(iii) transitivity :
let a, b, c ∈ Z such that (a, b) ∈ R and (b, c) ∈ R
then, (a, b) ∈ R => 2 divides b – a
b – a = 2x for some x ∈ Z (eqn.1)
and(b – c) ∈ R
2 divides c – b => c – b = 2y for some y ∈ Z (eqn 2)
on solving equation 1 and 2,
c – a = 2 (x + y) where x + y ∈ Z
2 divides c – a
(a, c) ∈ R
Therefore, relation R is transitive.
Hence, relation R is an equivalence relation.
问题3.证明由(a,b)∈R <=> a – b定义的Z上的关系R可被5整除是Z上的等价关系。
解决方案:
Given, relation R on Z defined by (a, b) ∈ R <=> a – b is divisible by 5
as, we have to prove it a equivalence relation, the relation R must have to be reflexive, symmetric as well as transitive.
(i) Reflexibility :
Let a be an arbitrary element of R
=> a – a = 0
=> 0 is divisible by 5
=> a – a is divisible by 5
=> (a, a) ∈ R for all a ∈ Z
:. relation R is reflexive.
Again, (ii) symmetry
Let (a, b) ∈ R
=> a − b is divisible by 5
=> a − b = 5x for some x ∈ Z , b − a = 5 (−x)
since (−x) ∈ Z
b − a is divisible by 5
(b, a) ∈ R for all a, b ∈ Z
So, relation R is symmetric.
(iii) transitivity ;
Let (a, b) and (b, c) ∈ R
=> a − b is divisible by 5
=>a − b = 5x for some x ∈ Z (eqn. 1)
Also, b − c is divisible by 5
=> b − c = 5y for some y ∈ Z (eqn. 2)
Adding the above two equations,
a −b + b − c = 5x + 5y
=> a − c = 5 (x + y)
=> a − c is divisible by 5
Since, x + y ∈ Z
=>(a, c) ∈ R for all a, c ∈ Z
So, R is transitive on Z.
As relation R is reflexive, symmetric and transitive,
Hence, R is an equivalence relation on Z.

解决方案:
Given (a, b) ∈ R ⇔ a − b is divisible by n is a relation R defined on Z.
it is necessary that the relation R should be reflexive, symmetric and transitive.
(i) Reflexivity:
Let a ∈ N
a − a = 0
= 0 × n
=> a − a is divisible by n
=> (a, a) ∈ R
=> (a, a) ∈ R for all a ∈ Z
:.R is reflexive on Z.
(ii) Symmetry:
Let (a, b) ∈ R
a − b is divisible by n
=> a − b = nx for some x ∈ Z
=> b − a = n (−x)
=> b − a is divisible by n
=> (b, a) ∈ R
So, relation R is symmetric on Z.
lly (iii) Transitivity:
Let (a, b) and (b, c) ∈ R
a − b is divisible by n and b − c is divisible by n.
=> a − b= n x for some x ∈ Z (eqn . 1)
And b−c = ny for some y ∈ Z (eqn. 2)
a – b + b − c = nx + n y
=> a − c = n (p + q)
=> (a, c) ∈ R for all a, c ∈ Z
So, relation R is transitive on Z.
Therefore, R is reflexive, symmetric and transitive.
Hence, R is an equivalence relation on Z.
问题5.令Z为整数集。证明关系R = {((a,b):a,b∈Z并且a + b是偶数)是Z上的等价关系。
解决方案:
Given R = {(a, b): a, b ∈ Z and a + b is even} is a relation defined on R.
Also given that Z be the set of integers
it is necessary that the given relation should be reflexive, symmetric and transitive.
Reflexivity:
Let a be an arbitrary element of Z.
Then, a ∈ R
a + a = 2a is even for all a ∈ Z.
=> (a, a) ∈ R for all a ∈ Z
So, R is reflexive on Z.
(ii) Symmetry:
Let (a, b) ∈ R
=> a + b is even
=> b + a is even
=>(b, a) ∈ R for all a, b ∈ Z
So, R is symmetric on Z.
(iii) Transitivity:
Let (a, b) and (b, c) ∈ R
=> a + b and b + c are even
let a + b = 2x for some x ∈ Z (eqn. 1)
And b + c = 2y for some y ∈ Z (eqn. 2)
Adding the above two equations, we get
A + 2b + c = 2x + 2y
=> a + c = 2 (x + y − b), which is even for all x, y, b ∈ Z
Thus, (a, c) ∈ R
So, R is transitive on Z.
Therefore, relation R is reflexive, symmetric and transitive.
Hence, R is an equivalence relation on Z
6. m is said to be related to n if m and n are integers and m − n is divisible by 13. Does this define an equivalence relation?
问题6.如果m和n为整数,且m − n可被13整除,则m与n相关。这是否定义了等价关系?
解决方案:
Given that m is said to be related to n if m and n are integers and m − n is divisible by 13
So, we have to check whether the given relation is equivalence or not.
Let R = {(m, n): m, n ∈ Z : m − n is divisible by 13}
Reflexivity:
Let m be an arbitrary element of Z.
Then, m ∈ R
=> m − m = 0 = 0 × 13
=> m − m is divisible by 13
=> (m, m) is reflexive on Z.
Now, Symmetry:
Let (m, n) ∈ R.
Then, m − n is divisible by 13
=> m − n = 13p
Here, p ∈ Z
=>n – m = 13 (−p)
=> n − m is divisible by 13
=>(n, m) ∈ R for all m, n ∈ Z
So, R is symmetric on Z.
Transitivity:
Let (m, n) and (n, o) ∈ R
=>m − n and n − o are divisible by 13 (eqn. 1)
=>m – n = 13p and n − o = 13q for some p, q ∈ Z (eqn.2)
Adding the above two equations, we get
=>m – n + n − o = 13p + 13q
=> m−o = 13 (p + q)
=> m − o is divisible by 13
=>(m, o) ∈ R for all m, o ∈ Z
So, R is transitive on Z.
Therefore, R is reflexive, symmetric and transitive.
Hence, R is an equivalence relation on Z.
问题7.设R是在xv = y u时由(x,y)R(u,v)定义的有序整数对A上的关系。证明R是一个等价关系。
解决方案:
First let R be a relation on A
It is given that set A of ordered pair of integers defined by (x, y) R (u, v) if xv = y u
We have to check whether the given relation is equivalence or not.
Reflexivity:
Let (a, b) be an arbitrary element of the set A.
Then, (a, b) ∈ A
=> a b = b a
=>(a, b) R (a, b)
Thus, R is reflexive on A.
Again, Symmetry:
Let (x, y) and (u, v) ∈ A such that (x, y) R (u, v). Then,
x v = y u
=> v x = u y
=> u y = v x
=>(u, v) R (x, y)
So, R is symmetric on A.
Transitivity:
Let (x, y), (u, v) and (p, q) ∈R such that (x, y) R (u, v) and (u, v) R (p, q)
=> x v = y u and u q = v p
Multiplying the corresponding sides, we get
x v × u q = y u × v p
=> x q = y p
=>(x, y) R (p, q)
So, R is transitive on A.
Therefore, R is reflexive, symmetric and transitive.
Hence, R is an equivalence relation on A.

:. R is reflexive on A.
(ii) Symmetry:
Let (a, b) ∈ R
=>b = a
=> (b, a) ∈ R for all a, b ∈ A
So, R is symmetric on A.
(iii) Transitivity:
Let (a, b) and (b, c) ∈ R
=> a =b and b = c
=>a = b c
=>a = c
=> (a, c) ∈ R
So, R is transitive on A.
Hence, relation R is an equivalence relation on A.
Therefore, relation R is reflexive, symmetric and transitive.
The set of all elements related to 1 is {1}.

解决方案:
Given, L is the set of lines.
R = {(L1, L2) : L1 is parallel to L2} be a relation on L
Now, (i) reflexibility :
as we know, a line is always parallel to itself,
So, L1, L2 ∈ R

Again, (ii) symmetry :
Assume, L1, L2 ∈ L and (L1, L2) ∈ R
Since, L1 is parallel to L2
:. L2 is also parallel to L1
Thus, relation R is symmetric.
(iii) transitivity :
let L1, L2, L3 ∈ R in such a way that (L1, L2) ∈ R and (L2, L3) ∈ R
L1 is parallel to L2
L2 is parallel to L3
Therefore L1 is parallel to L3
Hence, relation R is transitive.
So, relation R is an equivalence relation.
Now, the set of all lines related to line y = 2x + 4 is y = 2x + c for all c ∈ R.

解决方案:
The relation R is defined as R = {(P1, P2):P1 and P2 have the same number of sides}
(i) reflexibility:
Let P be any polygon in A
Then, P and P have same number of sides

Thus, relation R is reflexive.
(ii) symmetry:
Let P1 and P2 be any polygon in A such that, (P1, P2 ) ∈ R
(P1, P2) ∈ R
P1 and P2 have same number of sides
so, P2 and P1 will have also same number of sides
Hence (P1, P2) ∈ R
so, relation R is symmetric.
at last (iii) transitivity :
let P1, P2, P3 be three polygons in A in such a way that (P1 , P2) ∈ R and (P2, P3) ∈ R
then, (P1, P2) have same number of sides
(P2, P3) have same number of sides
:. P1 and P3 will also have same number of sides.
Hence, relation R is transitive
so, relation R is an equivalence relation.
Now, let P be a polygon in A such that (P, T) ∈ R, where T is a right angle triangle with sides 3, 4 and 5
Then, (P, T) ∈ R
polygon P and triangle T have same number of sides
Hence, the set of all elements in A related to T is the set of all triangles in A.
