Example Question #1 : Function & Equivalence Relations
Which of the following is a property of a relation?
Equivalency Property
All are properties of a relation
Non-symmetric Property
Partition Property
Symmetric Property
Symmetric Property
For a relation to exist there must be a non empty set present. If a non empty set is present then there are three relation properties.
These properties are:
I. Reflexive Property
II. Symmetric Property
III. Transitive Property
When all three properties represent a specific set, then that set is known to have an equivalence relation.
Example Question #1 : Function & Equivalence Relations
What is an equivalency class?
An equivalency class is a definitional term.
Suppose is a non empty set and is an equivalency relation on . Then belonging to is a set that holds all the elements that live in that are equivalent to .
In mathematical terms this looks as follows,
