# 2. Let A be the set of all points in the plane with the origin removed. That is,
Define a relation on A by the rule:
A = {(x, y)|x, y = R} - {(0,0)}.
(a, b)R(c, d) ↔ (a, b) and (c, d) lie on the same line through the origin.
(a) Prove that R is an equivalence relation.
(b) Describe the equivalence classes arising from the equivalence relation R in part (a).
(c) If A is replaced by the entire plane, is R an equivalence relation?
