No CommentsOverview of Symmetric Relations
Description
A detailed tutorial on the property of symmetric relations. Step by step tutorial including several examples of symmetric relations for reference.
Overview
A symmetric relation can be mathematically defined as for all x, y, and z belonging to A, if x R y and y R z, then x R z. In this statement, A is a set, and R is a relation of that set. An empty set is considered to be symmetric. Since a symmetric relation is defined by a conditional sentence, a proof for the symmetric property of relations would be written as a direct proof.
