MCQ
How many reflexive relations are possible in a set $A$ whose $n(A)=3$ ?
  • $2^6$
  • B
    $2^9$
  • C
    $2^3$
  • D
    8

Answer

Correct option: A.
$2^6$
(a) : Number of reflexive relations on a set having $n$ elements $=2^{n(n-1)}$
So, required number of reflexive relations $=2^{3(3-1)}=2^6$
