Union of Reflexive Relations is Reflexive

Theorem
The union of two reflexive relations is also a reflexive relation.

Proof
Let $\mathcal R_1$ and $\mathcal R_2$ be reflexive relations on a set $S$.

From Reflexive contains Diagonal Relation, we have that:
 * $\Delta_S \subseteq \mathcal R_1$
 * $\Delta_S \subseteq \mathcal R_2$

Hence from Subsets Transitive, $\Delta_S \subseteq \mathcal R_1 \cup \mathcal R_2$.

Hence the result, from Reflexive contains Diagonal Relation.
