2) REFLEXIVE: (x,x) does not belongs to S(x,y) because x can not be brother or sister of himself/herself. so S(x,y) is not reflexive.
SYMMETRIC:if (x,y) belongs to S(x,y) then x is brother or sister of y. that means y is also brother or sister of x and hence (y,x) also belongs to S(x,y). Therefore given relation is symmetric.
TRANSITIVE: let (x,y) and (y,x) belongs to S(x,y) then (x,x) does not belongs to S(x,y) as x can not be brother or sister of himself/herself. so given relation is not transitive.
S is not an equivalence relation as it is not reflexive and transitive.

probelms 9.1 9 Modular arithmetic Definition 9.1 Let S be a set. A relation R = R(,y) on S is a statement about pairs (x,y) of elements of S. For r,y ES, I is related to y notation: Ry) if R(x,y) is true. A relation Ris: Reflexive if for any I ES, R. Symmetric if for any ry ES, Ry implies y Rr. Transitive if for any r.y.ES, Ry and yRimply R. An equivalence relation is a reflexive, symmetric and...
