Explain transitive relation with suitable examples.

Answer» Let `R` is a relation such that`R = {(a,b): a ** b}`, where `**` is a binary operation.
Let `(a,b) in R and (b,c) in R`
Then, relation `R` will be transitive if `(a,c) in R`.
Let us take an example.
Let `R = {(a,b): a le b}`
Let `(a,b) in R and (b,c) in R`
It means, `a le b and b le c`.
Therefore, ` a le c`.
So, `(a,c) in R`.
Thus, `R` is atransitive relation.
