Given: S=1,2,3,…,10 and
R=(A,B):A∩B=ϕ;A,B∈M
For Reflexive, M is subset of 'S'
⇒ϕ∈M for ϕ∩ϕ=ϕ
But it is given that relation is A∩B=ϕ.
So, it is not reflexive.
For symmetric,
If RBA⇒A∩B=ϕ, then RAB⇒B∩A=ϕ,
So, it is symmetric.
For transitive,
If A=(1,2),(2,3), B=(2,3),(3,4) then C=(3,4),(5,6).
⇒RBA,RCB is applicable but RCA is not followed.
So, it not transitive
Hence, the given relation is symmetric only.
