Four numbers are chosen at random (without replacement) from the set {1, 2, 3, ....., 20}. Statement-1: The probability that the chosen numbers when arranged in some order will form an AP Is 1/(85) . Statement-2: If the four chosen numbers form an AP, then the set of all possible values of common difference is {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}. (1) Statement-1 is true, Statement-2 is true; Statement-2 is not the correct explanation for Statement-1 (2) Statement-1 is true, Statement-2 is false (3) Statement-1 is false, Statement-2 is true (4) Statement-1 is true, Statement-2 is true; Statement-2 is the correct explanation for Statement-1
