Looks to me like a typo in the question. It should be asking for the correct option, and as you found that is (i).

Based on the way you drew the arrows, I concur with you that only answer (i) is correct. Is this a computerized test/homework where you are selecting multiple choice? So you were supposed to select the incorrect ones...is that what you did? I have seen these computerized tests coded wit the wrong answer before.
 

1. What is the purpose of finding the incorrect relation from the figure?

The purpose of finding the incorrect relation from the figure is to identify any errors or inconsistencies in the data or relationships presented in the figure. This can help to improve the accuracy and reliability of the information being presented.

2. How can one determine which relation is incorrect from the figure?
