Solution

A relation R on a set A is said to be asymmetric if for all (a, b) in R, (b, a) is not in R.

The set given is {0, 1}. So, the total number of possible relations is 2^4 = 16. These 16 relations are:

  1. {}
  2. {(0,0)}
  3. {(1,1)}
  4. {(0,1)}
  5. {(1,0)}
  6. {(0,0), (1,1)}
  7. {(0,0), (0,1)}
  8. {(0,0), (1,0)}
  9. {(1,1), (0,1)}
  10. {(1,1), (1,0)}
  11. {(0,1), (1,0)}
  12. {(0,0), (1,1), (0,1)}
  13. {(0,0), (1,1), (1,0)}
  14. {(0,0), (0,1), (1,0)}
  15. {(1,1), (0,1), (1,0)}
  16. {(0,0), (1,1), (0,1), (1,0)}

Out of these 16 relations, the asymmetric relations are:

  1. {}
  2. {(0,1)}
  3. {(1,0)}
  4. {(0,1), (1,0)}

So, there are 4 asymmetric relations on the set {0, 1}. Therefore, the answer is e.4.
