MCQ
Each question consists of two statements, namely, Assertion (A) and Reason (R). for selecting the correct answer, use the following code:
Assertion (A)
Reason (R)
In the given figure, a quad. ABCD is drawn to circumscribe a given circle as shown. Then, AB + BC = AD + DC. In two concentric circles, the chord of the larger circle, which to uches the smaller circle, is bisected at the point of contact.
  • A
    Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is a correct explanation of Assertion (A).
  • B
    Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true but Reason (R) is not a correct explanation of Assertion (A).
  • C
    Assertion (A) is true and Reason (R) is false.
  • Assertion (A) is false and Reason (R)is true.

Answer

Correct option: D.
Assertion (A) is false and Reason (R)is true.
The Assertion (A) is false since sum of the opposite sides of a quadrilateral circumscribing a circle are equal, and not the adjacent sides.The chord of the larger circle is the tangent to the smaller circle.
We know that the perpendicular drawn from the centre to the chord
So, the Reason (R) is true.
But is not the correct explanation for the Assertion (A).
