(a) Consider the relation R on the set A = {p, q, r, s} defined by R= {(p, p), (p, q), (q, r), (r, s), (r, T), (s, t)}. This relation is not reflexive. What element(s) would we need to add to R in order for it to be reflexive? (b) Consider the relation R on the set A = {X, Y, Z} defined by R = {(X, X), (X,Y), (X, Z), (Y,Y), (Y,Z), (Z, X)}. This relation is not symmetric. What element(s) would we need to add to R in order for it to be symmetric? (c) Consider the relation R on the set A = {X, Y, Z} defined by R = {(X,Y), (Y, X), (Z, Z)}. This relation is not transitive. What element(s) would we need to add to R in order for it to be transitive?

(a) Consider the relation R on the set A = {p, q, r, s} defined by
R= {(p, p), (p, q), (q, r), (r, s), (r, T), (s, t)}.
This relation is not reflexive. What element(s) would we need to add to R in order for it to be reflexive?
(b) Consider the relation R on the set A = {X, Y, Z} defined by
R = {(X, X), (X, Y), (X, Z), (Y, Y), (Y,Z), (Z, X)}.
This relation is not symmetric. What element(s) would we need to add to R in order for it to be symmetric?
(c) Consider the relation R on the set A = (X,Y,Z) defined by
R = {(X,Y), (Y, X), (Z, Z)}.
This relation is not transitive. What element(s) would we need to add to R in order for it to be transitive?
