R=\left \{ \left ( a,a \right ),\left ( b,b \right ),\left ( c,c \right ),\left ( a,b \right ),\left ( b,c \right ),\left ( a,c \right )\right \}

Set A=\left \{ a,b,c \right \}

for reflexive R=\left \{ \left ( a,a \right ),\left ( b,b \right ),\left ( c,c \right )\right \}

so given relation is reflexive

Symmetric

R=\left \{ \left ( a,b \right ),\left ( b,a \right ),\left ( a,c \right ),\left ( c,a \right ),\left ( b,c \right ),\left ( c,b \right )\right \}

So given relation is not reflexive

Transitive

R=\left \{ \left ( a,b \right ),\left ( b,a \right ),\left ( a,c \right )\right \}

So given relation is transitive.
