For at least a little while longer, I will keep explicit the distinction between a ''relative term'' like <math>\mathit{m}\!</math> and a ''relation'' like <math>M \subseteq X \times X,</math> but it is best to think of both of these entities as involving different applications of the same information, and so we could just as easily write the following form:

By way of making up a concrete example, let us say that <math>M\!</math> is given as follows:

By way of making up a concrete example, let us say that <math>\mathit{m}\!</math> or <math>M\!</math> is given as follows:

{| align="center" cellpadding="6" width="90%"

In sum, the relative term <math>\mathit{m}\!</math> and the relation <math>M\!</math> are both represented by the following matrix:

In sum, then, the relative term <math>\mathit{m}\!</math> and the relation <math>M\!</math> are both represented by the following matrix:
