Assertion (A): If (-1,3,2) and (5,3,2) are respectively the orthocentre and circumcentre of a triangle, then (3,3,2) is its centroid. Reason (R): Centroid of a triangle divides the line segment joining the orthocentre and the circumcentre in the ratio 1:2 , then: a)A and R are true and R is correct explanation to A. b)A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation to A. c)A is true, R is false. d)A is false. R is true.
