total cases: 21c1 * 21c1 ---> 441

number of cases with x=y: 21

cases with x not equal to y: 441-21 ----> 420
As x and y have the same domain, the cases with x>y and x<y will be equal in number.
So cases with x>y are: 420/2 ---> 210

Hence answer: D

21 total numbers in the set.

Pick the largest one: 10.
10 is larger than the other 20 in the set.

Pick 9.
9 is larger than 19 others in the set.

...etc.

20 + 19 + 18 + 17... + 1
= 210

Answer is D.
