Answer:

Hence proved, the relation “\geq” on the set R of all real numbers is reflexive and transitive but not symmetric.

Hint:

A relation R on set A is

 Reflexive relation:

If (a, a) \in R for every a \in A

Symmetric relation:

If (a, b) is true then (b, a)is also true for every a, b \in A

Transitive relation:

If (a, b) \text { and }(b, c) \in R then (a, c) \in R for every a, b, c \in A

Given:

 Relation is ”\geq”on the R of all real numbers.

Solution:

Reflexivity:

Let a \in R

a \geq a

"\geq "is reflexive.

Transitive: 

Let a, b, c \in R

Such that a \geq b \text { and } b \geq c

Thena \geq c

" \geq " is transitive.

Symmetric: Let a, b \in R

Such that a \geq b \text { but } b \ngeqslant a

 " \geq "not symmetric
