Assertion(A) If two tangents are drawn to a circle from an external point then they subtend equal angles at the centre.
Reason (R ) A parallelogram circumscribing a circle is a rhombus

A

Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R ) are true and Reason (R ) is a correct explanation of Asseration (A).

B

Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R ) are true but Reason (R ) is not a correct explanation of Asseration (A).

C

Assertion(A) is true and Reason (R ) is false.

D

Assertion(A) is false and Reason (R ) is true.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`A` and `R` are both true but `R` is not a corrcet explantion of `A`.
Hence, the correct answer is `(b)`.
