@nephron you're not supposed to be messaging others here. This is not a social networking site. And as of now there's no option for blocking individual messaging here. And if you do not obey the rules of the site you will be blocked from the site.

 Arjun Sir,

Its great to hear from u. Actually, I was so stubborn and rude so that u could reply. I have been saying Arjun Sir please respond, please check this answer, please remove my doubt, check the daily quiz idea. But u did not give a damn. Now, I consider it as an accomplishment that u responded. Becoz, I always wondered whom to complain when Arjun Sir is at fault. I know i am a clever clown .. hahahaha

@ Arjun Sir,

If u allow me, I have a great idea to take this site to next level, improve its quality still keeping it free and making u an entrepreneur like Khan of Khan's academy. But i don't know how to connect with u.

Answer 1

Given that,

it is ir-reflexive ===> (x,x) not allowed.

it is symmetric and transitive ===> if (x,y) is in R, then (y,x) must be present in R.

But note that as per transitive if (x,y) and (y,x) is present in R, then (x,x) must be in R, but we can't have such pairs due to ir-reflexive.

∴ R can be only EMPTY SET ===> |R| = 0

You mean we have a null relation.
