Let $A = \{0, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10\}$ and $R$ be the relation defined on $A$ such that $R = \{(x, y) \in A \times A : x - y \text{ is an odd positive integer or } x - y = 2\}$. The minimum number of elements that must be added to the relation $R$ so that it becomes a symmetric relation is equal to $...........$.
