If a symmetric relation on (A={1,2,3}) has exactly (5) pairs, which value is possible for the number of diagonal pairs?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: (1)

Step 1: In a symmetric relation, the number of off-diagonal pairs is even. Step 2: Since the total is (5), the number of diagonal pairs must be odd. With (3) elements, possible diagonal counts are at most (3), so (1) is possible. Step 3: Apply parity first, then check the maximum limit.
