Explanation

To solve the problem, we need to analyze both statements given in the question regarding the arithmetic progression (A.P.) defined by the terms \( a_1, a_2, a_3, \ldots, a_n \).

### Step 1: Understanding Statement 1

The first statement is:

\[ \frac{1}{a_1 a_n} + \frac{1}{a_2 a_{n-1}} + \frac{1}{a_3 a_{n-2}} + \ldots + \frac{1}{a_n a_1} = \frac{2}{a_1 + a_n} \left( \frac{1}{a_1} + \frac{1}{a_2} + \ldots + \frac{1}{a_n} \right) \]

This expression involves the reciprocals of the products of terms in the A.P. and is equal to a specific form involving the sum of the reciprocals of the terms.

### Step 2: Analyzing the Left Side of Statement 1

The left side consists of \( n \) terms, where each term is of the form \( \frac{1}{a_k a_{n-k+1}} \). We can express \( a_k \) and \( a_{n-k+1} \) in terms of the first term \( a_1 \) and the common difference \( d \):

\[ a_k = a_1 + (k-1)d \]
\[ a_{n-k+1} = a_1 + (n-k)d \]

Thus, we can rewrite each term on the left side.

### Step 3: Simplifying the Left Side

Using the formulas for \( a_k \) and \( a_{n-k+1} \):

\[ \frac{1}{(a_1 + (k-1)d)(a_1 + (n-k)d)} \]

This can be complex to simplify directly, but we can note that the structure of the terms suggests symmetry, which we will explore further.

### Step 4: Understanding Statement 2

The second statement is:

\[ a_r + a_{n-r+1} = a_1 + a_n \quad \text{for } 1 \leq r \leq n \]

This statement is true for any arithmetic progression. To see why, we can express \( a_r \) and \( a_{n-r+1} \):

\[ a_r = a_1 + (r-1)d \]
\[ a_{n-r+1} = a_1 + (n-r)d \]

Adding these gives:

\[ a_r + a_{n-r+1} = (a_1 + (r-1)d) + (a_1 + (n-r)d) = 2a_1 + (n-1)d \]

Since \( a_n = a_1 + (n-1)d \), we have:

\[ 2a_1 + (n-1)d = a_1 + a_n \]

Thus, Statement 2 is also true.

### Conclusion

Both statements are true. Therefore, the answer to the question is that both statements are valid.
