Assertion A : If A, B, C, D are four points on a semi-circular arc with centre at 'O' such that
`|vec(AB)| = |vec(BC)|=|vec(CD)|`, then
`vec(AB) +vec(AC) +vec(AD) =4 vec(AO) +vec(OB) +vec(OC)`
Reason R : Polygon law of vector addition yields
`vec(AB) +vec(BC) +vec(CD) +vec(AD)=2vec(AO)`

In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :

A

A is correct but R is not correct.

B
