(ii) [(1, 5), (2, 6), (3, 4), (3, 6)]
(iii) [(4, 2), (4, 3), (5, 1)]

Solution

Given:
A = {1, 2, 3} and B = {4, 5, 6}
Thus, we have:
A × B = {(1, 4), (1, 5), (1, 6), (2, 4), (2, 5), (2, 6), (3, 4), (3, 5), (3, 6)}

(i) {(1, 6), (3, 4), (5, 2)}
Since it is not a subset of A × B, it is not a relation from A to B.
(ii) {(1, 5), (2, 6), (3, 4), (3, 6)}
Since it is a subset of A × B, it is a relation from A to B.
(iii) {(4, 2), (4, 3), (5, 1)}
Since it is not a subset of A × B, it is not a relation from A to B.
(iv) A × B
Since it is a subset (equal to) of A × B, it is a relation from A to B.
