1, let m be an integer with m > 1. Define the relation R on the set of integers where aRb if a =
b mod m if there exists an integer k such that mk = a - b that is, m divides a - b. show that this
relation is an equivalence relation by showing that it is reflective, symmetric, and transitive
A show that this relation is reflective.
B, show that this relation is symmetric.
