Solution

The correct option is A

(1,1),(4,4),(4,7),(7,4),(7,7),(3,3)


Explanation For The Correct Option:

Determining the composition relation of R and R-1

The given relation R=(4,5),(1,4),(4,6),(7,6),(3,7)

Considering this relation is defined on a set A.

We know that R-1=y,x:(x,y)∈R

Therefore,R-1=(5,4),(4,1),(6,4),(6,7),(7,3)

We also know that composition of two R and S relation defined on a set A

S∘R=(x,y):∃zsuchthat∈A(x,z)∈R&(z,y)∈S

Therefore,

∵(4,5)∈R&(5,4)∈S⇒(4,4)∈R-1∘R∵(1,4)∈R&(4,1)∈S⇒(1,1)∈R-1∘R∵(4,6)∈R&(6,4)∈S⇒(4,4)∈R-1∘R∵(7,6)∈R&(6,7)∈S⇒(7,7)∈R-1∘R∵(3,7)∈R&(7,3)∈S⇒(3,3)∈R-1∘R∵(4,6)∈R&(6,7)∈S⇒(4,7)∈R-1∘R∵(7,6)∈R&(6,4)∈S⇒(7,4)∈R-1∘R

Thus, R-1∘R=(1,1),(4,4),(4,7),(7,4),(7,7),(3,3)

Hence, option A is the correct answer.
