2 RELATIONS AND FUNCTIONS Introduction Recall that the notion of relations and functions, domain, co-domain and range have been introduced in Class XI along with different types of specific real valued functions and their graphs. The concept of the term 'relation" in mathematics has been drawn from the meaning of relation in English language, according to which two objects or quantities are related if there is a recognisable connection or link between the two objects or quantities. Types of Relations In this section, we would like to study different types of relations. We know that a relation in a set A is a subset of A X A. Thus, the empty set φ and A x A are two extreme relations. For illustration, consider a relation R in the set A = {1, 2, 3, 4} given by R = {(a, b): a - b = 10}. This is the empty set, as no pair (a, b) satisfies the condition a - b = 10. Similarly, R' = {(a, b) : a - b > 0} is the whole set A x A, as all pairs (a, b) in A x A satisfy a - b > 0. These two extreme examples lead us to the following definitions. EMPTY RELATION : A relation R in a set A is called empty relation, if no element of A is related to any element of A, i.e., R = ϕ ϵ A x A. UNIVERSAL RELATION : A relation R in a set A is called universal relation, if each element of A is related to every element of A, i.e., R = A x A. Both the empty relation and the universal relation are some times called trivial relations. Q1. Let A be the set of all students of a boys school. Show that the relation R in A given by R = {(a, b) : a is sister of b} is the empty relation and R' = {(a, b) : the difference between heights of a and b is less than 3 meters} is the universal relation. Solution Since the school is boys school, no student of the school can be sister of any student of the school. Hence, R = showing that R is the empty relation. It is also obvious that the difference between heights of any two students of the school has to be less than 3 meters. This shows that R' = A x A is the universal relation Note: In Class XI, we have seen two ways of representing a relation, namely raster method and set builder method. However, a relation R in the set {1, 2, 3, 4} defined by R = {(a, b) : b = a + 1} is also expressed as a R b if and only if b = a + 1 by many authors. We may also use this notation, as and when convenient. If (a, b) ϵ R, we say that a is related a to b and we denote it as a R b. Consider three types of relations, 1 P a g e

3 REFLEXIVE, SYMMETRIC AND TRANSITIVE. REFLEXIVE RELATION : A relation R in set A is said to be reflexive, if (a,a) ϵr, for every a ϵ A or we say ara, for every aϵa. SYMMETRIC RELATION : A relation R in set A is said to be symmetric, if (a, b) ϵ R (b, a) ϵr, for all a, bϵ A. We can also say arb for every a,b e A. TANSITIVE RELATION : A relation R in set A is said to be transitive, if (a, b) ϵ R and (b, c) ϵ R (a, c) ϵ R, for every a,b,c ϵ R. We can say arb, brc,then arb for all a,b,c ϵ R. A relation R in set A is said to be an equivalence relation if relation R is reflexive, symmetric and transitive. A. Let A = { 1,2,3} then R1={(1,1),(2,2),(3,3),(1,2),(1,3)} is reflexive and R2 = {(1,1),(3,3),(1,2),(1,3)}it is not reflexive as (2,2) R. B. Let A = { a,b,c} then R1={(a,a),(a,b),(a,c),(b,a),(b,b),(b,c),(c,a),(c,b) (c,c)} is reflexive and R2={(a,a),(a,b),(a,c),(b,b),(b,c),(c,a),(c,b) (c,c)} reflexive, (b,a) R2 non symmetric R3={(a,a),(a,b),(a,c),(b,b),(b,c),(c,a),(c,b) (c,c)} reflexive, (b,a) R3 non symmetric non transitive as we have (b,c ), (c,a) but no (b,a). R4={(a,a),(a,b),(b,c),(c,a),(c,b) (c,c)} R5={(a,a),(a,b),(a,c),(b,a),(b,b),(b,c),(c,b) (c,c)} Example Show that the relation R in the set Z of integers given by R = {(a, b) : 2 divides a - b} is an equivalence relation. Solution : R is reflexive, as 2 divides (a - a) for all a ϵ Z. Further, if (a, b) ϵ R, then 2 divides a - b. Therefore, 2 divides b - a. Hence, (b, a)ϵ R, which shows that R is symmetric. Similarly, if (a, b) ϵ R and (b, c) e R, then a - b and b - c are divisible by 2. Now, a - c = (a - b) + (b - c) is even. So, (a - c) is divisible by 2. This shows that R is transitive. Thus, R is an equivalence relation in Z. Example Let R be the relation defined in the set A = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7} R = {(a, b) : both a and b are either odd or even}. Show that R is an equivalence relation. Further, show that all the elements of the subset {1, 3, 5, 7} are related to each other and all the elements of the subset {2, 4, 6} are related to each other, but no element of the subset {1, 3, 5, 7} is related to any element of the subset {2, 4, 6}. Solution Given any element a in A, both a and a must be either odd or even, so that (a, a) e R. Further, (a, b) ϵ R both a and b must be either odd or even (b, a) ϵ R. Similarly, (a, b) ϵ R and (b, c) ϵ R all elements a, b, c, must be either even or odd simultaneously (a, c) ϵ R. Hence, R is an equivalence relation. Further, all the elements of {1, 3, 5, 7} are related to each other, as all the elements of this subset are odd. Similarly, all the elements of the subset {2, 4, 6} are related to each other, as all of them are even. Also, no element of the subset {1, 3, 5, 7} can be related to any element of {2, 4, 6}, as elements of {1, 3, 5, 7} are odd, while elements of {2, 4, 6} are even. 2 P a g e

21 Types of Functions The notion of a function along with some special functions like identity function, constant function, polynomial function, rational function, modulus function, signum function etc. along with their graphs have been given in Class XI. A function f is a rule from set A to set B which assigns to each element of set A, a unique element of set B. Set A is called the DOMAIN of the function 'f' and the set B is known as its CO-DOMAIN. The SET OF VALUES, from the set B which are ACTUALLY TAKEN by the function 'f' is called the RANGE OF THE FUNCTION 'f'. We denote it as f: A B, if x ϵ A then f(x)b. A function whose domain and co-domain are the sets of real numbers is known as a real valued function i.e. f: R R. IDENTITY FUNCTION. A function 'f' is said to be an identity function, if f(x) = x, x ϵ R. Df = Real numbers, R f = Real Number. CONSTANT FUNCTION. A function 'f' is said to be an constant function, if f(x) = c, x ϵ R. D f =R, R f = {c}. Positive square root function: A function f(x)= x, x>0is known as a positive square root function. D f =R + {0}, R f = R + {0}. Rational function. A function f(x) = p(x), where p(x) and q(x) are polynomial functions and q(x) q(x) 0. D f = R - {zeros of q(x)}. Absolute value function. A function f(x) = IxI, xϵ R is known as an absolute value function and is defined as f(x) = { x x > 0, f(x) is always positive. x x 0 D f = Real number ; R f = R + {0}. Greatest integer function. A function(x) = [x], xϵ R, where [x] represents greatest integer x, is called a greatest integer function, D f = Real number ; R f = Integers. Exponential function. A function f{x) = e x, xϵ R is known as an exponential function, 2 < e < 3. D f = Real Numbers,R f = R P a g e

22 Logarithmic function. A function fix) = log e x, x > 0 or f(x) = ln(x), x > 0 is known as logarithmic function. D f = Real Numbers, R f = R +. Properties of logarithm: a) loga a = 1 a b = M, then logam=b b) loga 1 = 0 as a 0 = 1 c) logm ab = logm a + logmb provided a and b are both positive, i.e., a, b> 0 d) logm { a }= logm a - logm b provided a and b are both positive, i.e., a,b> 0 b e) logm (a) n = n logm a provided a and b are both positive, i.e., a, n > 0 An even function. A function 'f' is said to be an even function, if f(-x) =f(x). An odd function. A function '/'is said to be an odd function, if f(- x) = -f(x). Algebra of functions. If 'f' and 'g' are two given functions with domains D l and D 2, then (1) (f± g) (x) = f(x) ±g(x) (2) (fg)(x) = f(x).g(x) Domain of f± g,fg is D x D v Domain of f g is D l D 2 - {zeros of g(x)}. One-One or injective function. A function f: A B is said to be one-one (or injective), if the images of distinct element of A under the rule '/' are distinct in B, i.e., for every a, bϵ A, a b f(a) f(b) or we can also say that f(a) =f(b) a=b. One one function Many-one function. A function f: A B is said to be many-one, if the images of two or more elements of A are associated with same elements of B, i.e., for everya, bϵ A, a b f(a) = f(b). 21 P a g e

23 Many one function : when function is not one-one then many one. For any set X and any subset S of X the inclusion map S X (which sends any element s of S to itself) is injective. In particular the identity function X X is always injective (and in fact bijective). If the domain X = or X has only one element, the function X Y is always injective. The function f : R R defined by f(x) = 2x + 1 is injective. The function g : R R defined by g(x) = x 2 is not injective, because (for example)g(1) = 1 = g( 1). However, if g is redefined so that its domain is the non-negative real numbers [0,+ ), then g is injective. The exponential function exp : R R defined by exp(x) = e x is injective (but notsurjective as no real value maps to a negative number). The natural logarithm function ln : (0, ) R defined by x ln x is injective. The function g : R R defined by g(x) = x n x is not injective, since, for example,g(0) = g(1). Onto or surjective function. A function f : A B is said to be onto function (or suijective), if every element of B is image of some element of A under the rule 'f', i.e., for every be B, there exists an element a ϵ A such that f(a) = b. Note : A function is onto if and only if R f = B. On to The function f3 and f4 are onto as every element has it image 22 P a g e

24 Into-function. A function f: A B is said to be an into function if there is at least one element in B which is not an image of any element in A, i.e., Range Codomain. Also there is at least one b ϵ B such that b f(a), for any a ϵ A. the function f in Fig 1.2 (i) is not onto as elements e, f in X2 are not the image of any element in X1 under. One-one onto function. A function: A > B is said to be one-one onto (or bijective) if 'f' is both one- one and onto. IF FUNCTION IS NOT ONTO THEN INTO. For a pairing between X and Y (where Y need not be different from X) to be a bijection, four properties must hold: 1. each element of X must be paired with at least one element of Y, 2. no element of X may be paired with more than one element of Y, 3. each element of Y must be paired with at least one element of X, and 4. no element of Y may be paired with more than one element of X. Satisfying properties (1) and (2) means that a bijection is a function with domain X. It is more common to see properties (1) and (2) written as a single statement: Every element of X is paired with exactly one element of Y. Functions which satisfy property (3) are said to be "onto Y " and are called surjections (or surjective functions). Functions which satisfy property (4) are said to be "one-to-one functions" and are called injections (or injective functions).[1] With this terminology, a bijection is a function which is both a surjection and an injection, or using other words, a bijection is a function which is both "one-to-one" and "onto". For any set X, the identity function id X on X is surjective. The function f : Z {0,1} defined by f(n) = n mod 2 (that is, even integers are mapped to 0 and odd integers to 1) is surjective. The function f : R R defined by f(x) = 2x + 1 is surjective (and even bijective), because for every real number y we have an x such that f(x) = y: an appropriate x is (y 1)/2. 23 P a g e

25 The function f : R R defined by f(x) = x 3 3x is surjective, because the pre-image of any real number y is the solution set of the cubic polynomial equation x 3 3x y = 0 and every cubic polynomial with real coefficients has at least one real root. However, this function is not injective (and hence not bijective) since e.g. the pre-image of y = 2 is {x = 1, x = 2}. (In fact, the pre-image of this function for every y, 2 y 2 has more than one element.) The function g : R R defined by g(x) = x 2 is not surjective, because there is no real number x such that x 2 = 1. However, the function g : R R0 + defined by g(x) = x 2 (with restricted codomain) is surjective because for every y in the nonnegative real codomain Y there is at least one x in the real domain X such that x 2 = y. The natural logarithm function ln : (0,+ ) R is a surjective and even bijective mapping from the set of positive real numbers to the set of all real numbers. Its inverse, the exponential function, is not surjective as its range is the set of positive real numbers and its domain is usually defined to be the set of all real numbers. HOW TO SOLVE ONE-ONE Step1. Take two arbitrary elementes x, y in the domain of f. Step2.a. Put f(x) = f(y) If f(x) = f(y) give x = y only then f: A B is a one one function. b.let x1 x2 then if f(x1) f(x2) If function is not one one then many one. How to solve onto Step 1: Take two arbitrary elementes y in B. Step 2: Put f(x) = y Step 3:Solve the equation f(x) =y for x and obtain x in tearm of y. let x=h(y) Step 4: if for all values of yϵ B, the value of x obtained from x=h(y) are in A,then f is onto. if for all values of yϵ B, the value of x obtained from x=h(y) are not in A,then f is onto. 24 P a g e

34 Composition of Functions and Invertible Function Definition 8 Let f: A B and g : B C be two functions. Then the composition of f and g, denoted by gof, is defined as the function gof: A C given by gof (x) = g(f (x)), y x e A. It can be verified in general that gof is one-one implies that f is one-one. Similarly, gof is onto implies that g is onto. The interesting fact is that the result mentioned in the above example is true for an arbitrary one-one and onto function f: X Y. Not only this, even the converse is also true, i.e., iff: X ^ Y is a function such that there exists a function g : Y X such that gof = Ix and fog = Iy, then f must be one-one and onto. Composition of functions. Let f: A B and g : B C be two given functions. Then composition of function f and g is a function from A to C and is denoted as gof We define 'gof' as (gof) (x) = g {f (x)} x ϵ A. For working, on element x first we apply f rule and whatever result is obtained in set B, we apply g rule on it to get the required result in set c. Q Let S = {1, 2, 3}. Determine whether the functions f: S S defined as below have inverses. Find f1, if it exists. f = {(1, 1), (2, 2), (3, 3)} f = {(1, 2), (2, 1), (3, 1)} f = {(1, 3), (3, 2), (2, 1)} Solution It is easy to see thatf is one-one and onto, so thatf is invertible with the inverse f-1 off given by f-1 = {(1, 1), (2, 2), (3, 3)} = f Since f (2) = f (3) = 1, f is not one-one, so that f is not invertible. It is easy to see that f is one-one and onto, so that f is invertible with f-1 = {(3, 1), (2, 3), (1, 2)}. 33 P a g e

52 Binary Operation A binary operation * on set A is said to be commutative, if for all a, & t rx, ct ' U u (X. A binary operation * on set A is said to be associative, if for all a, c e A, (a * b) * c - a * (b * c). Right from the school days, you must have come across four fundamental operations namely addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. The main feature of these operations is that given any two numbers a and b, we associate another number a + b or a - b or ab or a/b, b 0. It is to be noted that only two numbers can be added or multiplied at a time. When we need to add three numbers, we first add two numbers and the result is then added to the third number. Thus, addition, multiplication, subtraction and division are examples of binary operation, as 'binary' means two. If we want to have a general definition which can cover all these four operations, then the set of numbers is to be replaced by an arbitrary set X and then general binary operation 51 P a g e

53 is nothing but association of any pair of elements a, b from X to another element of X. This gives rise to a general definition as follows: Binary operation implies an operation involving the two elements of a given set. A binary operation * on set A is a function * : A x A A. We denote * (a, b) by a * b. Q1. Show that binary operation * : NXN N given by a* b = a + b + ab is Z valid operation. Sol.We notice that for a, b ϵ N, a + b is a natural number and ab is also a natural number. Hence a + b + ab ϵ N for all a, bϵ N. Therefore a * b is a valid binary operation in N. Ex. 2. Show that binary operation * : N XN N given by a * b = a + b - ab is not a valid operation. Sol. We notice that for a, b ϵ N, a + b is a natural number and ab is also a natural number but a+ b-ab may or may not be a natural number. e.g., let a = 3, b = 5 then, a*b = a + b-ab =>. 3*5 = x5 = 8-15 = -7 ϵ N Hence a* b is not a valid operation in N. 3 Show that the : R x R R given by (a, b) max {a, b} and the : R x R R given by (a, b) min {a, b} are binary operations. Solution Since carries each pair (a, b) in R x R to a unique element namely maximum of a and b lying in R, is a binary operation. Using the similar argument, one can say that a is also a binary operation. Remark (4, 7) = 7, (4, - 7) = 4, (4, 7) = 4 and (4, - 7) = - 7. When number of elements in a set A is small, we can express a binary operation * on the set A through a table called the operation table for the operation *. For example consider A = {1, 2, 3}. A binary operation on the set X is called commutative, if a b= b a, for every a, b X. Show that + : R x R R and X : R x R R are commutative binary operations, but - : R x R R and : R* x R* R* are not commutative. ExShow that * : R x R ^ R defined by a * b = a + 2b is not commutative. If we want to associate three elements of a set X through a binary operation on X, we encounter a natural problem. The expression a * b * c may be interpreted as (a * b) * c or a * (b * c) and these two expressions need not be same. For example, (8-5) - 2 * 8 - (5-2). Therefore, association of three numbers 8, 5 and 3 through the binary operation 'subtraction' is meaningless, unless bracket is used. But in case of addition, has the same value whether we look at it as ( 8 + 5) + 2 or as 8 + (5 + 2). Thus, 52 P a g e

54 association of 3 or even more than 3 numbers through addition is meaningful without using bracket. This leads to the following: A binary operation * : A x A A is said to be associative if (a * b) * c = a * (b * c), a, b, c, ϵ A. Ex.Show that addition and multiplication are associative binary operation on R. But subtraction is not associative on R. Division is not associative on R*. Example 37 Show that * : R x R R given by a * b= a + 2b is not associative. Remark Associative property of a binary operation is very important in the sense that with this property of a binary operation, we can write a1 * a2 *... * a n which is not ambiguous. But in absence of this property, the expression a1 * a2 *... * a n is ambiguous unless brackets are used. Recall that in the earlier classes brackets were used whenever subtraction or division operations or more than one operation occurred. For the binary operation '+' on R, the interesting feature of the number zero is that a + 0 = a = 0 + a, i.e., any number remains unaltered by adding zero. But in case of multiplication, the number 1 plays this role, as a x 1 = a = 1 x a, a in R. This leads to the following definition: D3 Given a binary operation * : A x A A, an element e ϵ A, if it exists, is called identity for the operation *, if a * e = a = e * a, a ϵ A. Ex Show that zero is the identity for addition on R and 1 is the identity for multiplication on R. But there is no identity element for the operations - : R x R ^ R and : R* x R* R*. Solution a + 0 = 0 + a = a and a x 1 = a = 1 x a, V a e R implies that 0 and 1 are identity elements for the operations '+' and ' x' respectively. Further, there is no element e in R with a - e = e - a, v a. Similarly, we can not find any element e in R* such that a - e = e - a, V a in R*. Hence, '-' and '-' do not have identity element. Remark Zero is identity for the addition operation on R but it is not identity for the addition operation on N, as 0 N. In fact the addition operation on N does not have any identity. One further notices that for the addition operation + : R x R R, given any a ϵ R, there exists - a in R such that a + (- a) = 0 (identity for '+') = (- a) + a. Similarly, for the multiplication operation on R, given any a 0 in R, we can choose 1/a in R such that a X 1/a = 1 (identy for X). Given a binary operation : A A A with the identity element e in A, an element a A is said to be invertible with respect to the operation, if there exists an element bin A such that a b= e= b a and b is called the inverse of a and is denoted by a 1. Example 39 Show that ais the inverse of afor the addition operation + on R and 1/a is the inverse of a 0 for the multiplication operation on R. 53 P a g e
