Directions: In the following questions, the Assertions $(A)$ and Reason(s) $(R)$ have been put forward. Read both the statements carefully and choose the correct alternative from the following:
Assertion: According to Euclid’s $1$st axiom- “Things which are equal to the same thing are also equal to one another”.
Reason: If $AB = PQ$ and $PQ = XY$, then $AB = XY$.
  • Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion.
  • B
    Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is not the correct explanation for Assertion.
  • C
    Assertion is true but the reason is false.
  • D
    Both assertion and reason are false.

  • A
    Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion.
  • B
    Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is not the correct explanation for Assertion.

Directions: In the following questions, the Assertions $(A)$ and Reason(s) $(R)$ have been put forward. Read both the statements carefully and choose the correct alternative from the following:
Assertion: If a point $C$ be the mid$-$point of a line line segment $AB$, then the relation among $AC, BC$ and $AB$ is $\text{AC}=\text{CB}=\big(\frac{1}{2}\big)\text{AB}.$
Reason: If a point $P$ be the mid$-$point of $MN$ and $C$ is the mid$-$point of $MP$, then the relation between $MC$ and $MN$
is $\text{MC}=\big(\frac{1}{4}\big)\text{MN}.$
  • A
    Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion.
  • B
    Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is not the correct explanation for Assertion.
  • Assertion is true but the reason is false.
  • D
    Both assertion and reason are false.

Directions: In the following questions, the Assertions $(A)$ and Reason(s) $(R)$ have been put forward. Read both the statements carefully and choose the correct alternative from the following:
Assertion: There can be infinite number of lines that can be drawn through a single point.
Reason: From this point we can draw only two lines.
  • A
    Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion.
  • B
    Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is not the correct explanation for Assertion.
  • Assertion is true but the reason is false.

Directions: In the following questions, the Assertions $(A)$ and Reason(s) $(R)$ have been put forward. Read both the statements carefully and choose the correct alternative from the following:
Assertion: Euclid’s fifth postulate does imply the existence of the parallel lines.
Reason: If the sum of the interior angles is equal to the sum of the right angles, then the two lines will not meet each other at any given point, hence making them parallel to each other.
  • A
    Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion.
  • B
    Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is not the correct explanation for Assertion.
  • Assertion is true but the reason is false.
  • D
    Both assertion and reason are false.
