Solution

The question seems to be asking for the properties of a and b in a partially ordered set (poset). In a poset, the relation R is reflexive, antisymmetric, and transitive.

  1. Reflexive: For every element 'a' in set A, the relation aRa holds true. This means every element is related to itself.

  2. Antisymmetric: For all 'a' and 'b' in set A, if aRb and bRa, then a = b. This means that the only way for both aRb and bRa to hold is if a and b are the same element.

  3. Transitive: For all 'a', 'b', and 'c' in set A, if aRb and bRc, then aRc. This means that if 'a' is related to 'b', and 'b' is related to 'c', then 'a' is also related to 'c'.

So, the answer to the question is "reflexive and transitive".
