A relation R on a set S is an equivalence relation on S if and only if R is
(a) reflexive, that is, x R x for all x in S,
(b) symmetric, i.e., if x R y, then y R x for all x, y in S, and
(c) transitive, i.e., if x R y and y R z, then x R z for all x, y, z in S.

Equality (R) on the set (S) of reals is the best known example of an equivalence relation.

Another example is congruence on the set of integers: we say a is congruent to b modulo m if and only if m divides b - a. For example 4 is congruent to 7 modulo 3 because 3 divides 4 - 7. You should be able to prove that congruence is reflexive, symmetric, and transitive.

An equivalence relation is a relation between two elements of a set such that the relationship is reflexive, symmetric, and transitive.

If A is the set of real numbers, the relation "addition" of two numbers is reflexive, symmetric, and transitive, so this is an equivalence relation .

If A is the set real numbers, the relation "subtraction" of two numbers is not symmetric (x-y does not equal y-x), so this is not an equivalence relation.

What constitutes a "sucess" for you? family members with a myriad of countries has better. Now, in case you think of that bending over for the chinese language because of the fact companies % to get affordable stuff from them, on an identical time as they scouse borrow and pirate our psychological sources with impunity and dictate our foreign places coverage for us is a "fulfillment" in foreign places family members, it particularly is fantastic. are not you an identical adult adult males who fault Obama for being polite and bowing to foreign places heads of state? are not you an identical ones who declare that Obama is basically too gentle on Iran? Now he's not letting a much off places ability dictate to us over them desiring us to be softer on Iran, and that's a "failure?" So, something it particularly is incomprehensible, like a bow is terrible. something the place he shows actually potential and independence from the purposes of different international locations is a reason for hand-wringing? Make up your minds. You adult adult males seem to % it the two techniques better than Dennis Rodman.

I don't know if this is what you need

x = 2 . . . . 2 and x are equivalent or equal
tan x = 1/ cot x . . . . . identities are also equivalence
2.2. lbs = 1 Kg . . . . . in unit measure
1 cu. ft. = 7.48 gallons . . . . equivalence of volume
1 minute = 60 sec . . . . . time unit has also equivalence
5 ft. 7 inches = 170 cm . . this is my height in different units
E = mc^2 . . . . . this is the equivalence of energy to matter
they said that love is God.

thanks for the light of wisdom , . . it shines equally to all men
