Let L be the set of all lines in a plane and R be the relation on set L defined by \(R=\left\{\left(L_1, L_2\right) : L_1 \perp L_2\right\}\). Then R is
(A) an equivalence Relation
(B) a symmetric Relation
(C) not a transitive Relation
(D) a reflexive Relation
Choose the correct answer from the options given below :

  1. A (A) only
  2. B (B) and (C) only
  3. C (B) and (D) only
  4. D (B), (C) and (D) only
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) (B) and (C) only

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Reflexive: \(L_1 \perp L_1\) is false. Symmetric: If \(L_1 \perp L_2\), then \(L_2 \perp L_1\). True. Transitive: If \(L_1 \perp L_2\) and \(L_2 \perp L_3\), then \(L_1 \parallel L_3\). Thus \(L_1 \perp L_3\) is false. R is symmetric and not transitive. The correct option is (B)…
