Rock, paper, scissors is an example of a game that uses:

A. transitive

B. intransitive

C. orthogonal relationships

D. dominate strategy

A is the answer as transitive means:

(of a relation) such that, if it applies between successive members of a sequence, it must also apply between any two members taken in order. For instance, if A is larger than B, and B is larger than C, then A is larger than C.

B. intransitive

Explanation:

An intransitive game is traditionally described as an activity that produces one or more loops of preference. In other words, if the strategy A is preferred over strategy B, and strategy B is preferred over strategy C, strategy A is not necessarily preferred over strategy C.
