1. **Interpersonal Relations**: In social contexts, relations refer to the connections or associations between individuals, such as friendships, family ties, or professional relationships.
2. **Mathematical Relation**: In mathematics, a relation is a set of ordered pairs, or a relationship between two or more sets that defines how elements from those sets correspond to each other. For example, in set theory, a relation can indicate how elements of one set relate to elements of another.
