For the partitions, draw the digraph (directed graph) of the relation induced by the partition. a) {a,b},{a,c},{c,d} is NOT a partition, because the subsets are not disjoint. b) {a,b,c} is NOT a partition because it does not span all of {a,b,c,d}. c) {a},{b,c,d} IS a partition. The graph would be the point "a" looped to itself, and then the points "b" "c" and "d" all connected. 2. For n and m positive integers, define the relation R as nRm iff m mod(n) = 0. Is R reflexive? Symmetric? Transitive? Prove or give counterexamples. a) R is reflexive. By the Q-R theorem, m =1*m + 0. b) R is not symmetric. 6R3, since 6 mod(3) = 0, but 3 mod(6) = 3, so 3/R6 . c) R is transitive. Suppose mRn and nRp. By Q-R this means m = kn, and n = hp . Thus m = k(hp) = (kh)p, and by closure, mRp . 3. Ley x,y be real numbers and let C be the "circle" relation, i.e. xCy iff x^2 + y^2 = 1. Is C reflexive? Symmetric? Transitive? Prove or give counterexamples. a) C is not reflexive. 1+1=2 . b) C is symmetric, since addition is symmetric. That is, x^2 + y^2 = y^2 + x^2 . c) C is not transitive. 1C0, and by symmetry 0C1, but as we saw in (a), 1/C1 .
