Document Summary

The most direct way to express a relationship between elements of two sets is to use ordered pairs made up of two related elements. For this reason, sets of ordered pairs are called binary relations: let a and b be sets. A binary relation from a to b is a subset of a b. In other words, a binary relation from a to b is a set r of ordered pairs where the first element of each ordered pair comes from a and the second element comes from b. Example: let a = {0, 1, 2} and b = {a, b}. Then {(0, a), (0, b), (1, a), (2, b)} is a relation from a to b. Relations on a set: a relation on a set a is a relation from a to a. In other words, a relation on a set a is a subset of a a.
