where  are straight lines in a plane.
Let be set of lines in a plane

Reflexivity:
No line is perpendicular to itself.
i.e. is not perpendicular to     
So, is not related to    
Hence, is not reflexive.

Symmetry:
Let
      (Two lines are mutually perpendicular to each other)
Hence, is symmetric

Transitivity:
Let
Let
It does not implies that
Hence, not related to
Hence, is not transitive.

Given
Reflexivity: 
Every line is parallel to itself.

Hence, is reflexive.

Symmetry:
Let

 

Hence, is symmetric.

Transitivity:
Let
    (Two lines parallel to same line are parallel to each other.)

Hence, is transitive.
