Let $\text{R}$ be a relation from a set $\text{A}$ to a set $\text{B}.$ The inverse relation from $\text{B}$ to $\text{A},$ denoted by $\text{R}^{-1},$ is the set of ordered pairs $\{(b,a) \mid (a,b) \in R\}$.

  • $\text{S1: R}$ is reflexive relation iff $\text{R}^{-1} = \text{R}$
  • $\text{S2: R}$ is a symmetric relation iff $\text{R}^{-1} = \text{R}$

Which one of the following statements is true?

  1. Only $\text{S1}$
  2. Only $\text{S2}$
  3. Both $\text{S1}$ and $\text{S2}$
  4. None of the above

Reflexive and Symmetric properties can't be applied when relation is on different sets so the answer would be D
