Let $R = \{(1,2), (2,3), (3,3)\}$ be a relation defined on the set $A = \{1, 2, 3, 4\}$. Then the minimum number of elements needed to be added to $R$ so that $R$ becomes an equivalence relation is:

Let $f: X \rightarrow Y$ be a function. Define a relation $R$ in $X$ given by $R = \{(a, b) : f(a) = f(b)\}$. Examine if $R$ is an equivalence relation.

Let $R$ be an equivalence relation on a finite set $A$ having $n$ elements. Then the number of ordered pairs in $R$ is

Let $P$ be the relation defined on the set of all real numbers such that $P = \{(a,b) : \sec^2 a - \tan^2 b = 1\}$. Then $P$ is

Let the relation $R$ on the set $M = \{1, 2, 3, \dots, 16\}$ be given by $R = \{(x, y) : 4y = 5x - 3, x, y \in M\}$. Then the minimum number of elements required to be added in $R$, in order to make the relation symmetric, is equal to
