Ans. Equivalence relation are Relations which are reflexive, transitive and symmetric.
R = {(a, b): f(a) = f(b)}
Check reflexive :
Since f (a) = f (a),
(a, a) ∈ R,
Hence, R is reflexive.
Check symmetric:
If f (a) = f (b), then f (b) = f (a)
Hence, (b, a) ∈ R.
So, if (a, b) ∈ R
then (b, a) ∈ R.
R is symmetric.
Check transitive :
If (a, b) ∈ R
⇒ f(a) = f(b) ........... (1)
Also if, (b, c)∈ R
⇒ f(b) = f(a) .................(2)
From (1) & (2)
f(a) = f(c)
⇒ (a, c) ∈ R,
If (a, b) ∈ R & (b, c) ∈ R ,
then (a, c) ∈ R
R is transitive.
Hence, R is an equivalence relation.
