What do you mean by a binary relation on a set A? Define the domain and range of relation on A.

Any subset of (A × A) is called a binary relation to A. Here, (A × A) is the cartesian product of A with A.


Let A = {4, 5, 6) and R = {(4, 5), (6, 4), (5, 6)}


Here, R is a binary relation to A.


The domain of R is the set of first co-ordinates of R


Dom(R) = {4, 6, 5}


The range of R is the set of second co-ordinates of R


Range(R) = {5, 4, 6}
