Let A be a nonempty set. A relation ∼ on the set A is an equivalence relation provided that ∼ is reflexive, symmetric, and transitive. For a,b∈A , if ∼ is an equivalence relation on A and a ∼ b , we say that a is equivalent to b. In this section, we will focus on the properties that define an equivalence relation.

A function is a special type of relation in the sense that each element of the first set, the domain, is “related” to exactly one element of the second set, the codomain. This idea of relating the elements of one set to those of another set using ordered pairs is not restricted to functions.
