Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Given two sets A = {x, y} and B = {1, 2, 3}, find all possible binary relations, and compute the total count. Discuss the nature of the relations.

💡 Hint: Examine subsets of the Cartesian product A x B.

Challenge 2 Hard

Consider the relation defined over A = {1, 2, ..., 5} such that aRb if and only if a is less than b. List all pairs and construct the corresponding Boolean matrix.

💡 Hint: Use ordered pairs, and for the matrix, remember positions for true pairs.
