  1. A reflexive but neither symmetric nor transitive
  2. B symmetric and transitive

  4. D reflexive and transitive
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) reflexive and transitive

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(R = \left\{ {\left( {x,y} \right):x,y \in N\,\,and\,\,{x^2} - 4xy + 3{y^2} = 0} \right\}\) Now, \({{x^2} - 4xy + 3{y^2} = 0}\) \( \Rightarrow \left( {x - y} \right)\left( {x - 3y} \right) = 0\) \(\therefore x = y\) or \(x = 3y\)…
