Ans: Let the following relation R is defined on set A = {x, y, z}. To test if the relation R is partially ordered, we have to test if R is reflexive, anti symmetric and transitive.   

Reflexivity: As all elements in the principal diagonal is '1', R is reflexive.  

Anti Symmetry: In the following relation, we do not comprise any pairs (x, y) & (y, x) like that x ≠ y that is for (x, y) & (y, x) in R, x = y.  So R is anti symmetric.  

Transitivity: The relation is not transitive since for (y, x) & (x, z) in R, (y, z) is not in R.  Hence R is not partially ordered.
