CBSE Class 10 Maths (Basic) 2025 · Paper 430(B) · Question 19
Read the Assertion (A) and the Reason (R) given below and select the correct option.
Assertion (A): In a , D and E are points on the sides AB and AC respectively such that , then .
Reason (R): If a line is drawn parallel to one side of a triangle, intersecting the other two sides, then it divides the two sides in the same ratio.
- (a)Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is the correct explanation of the Assertion (A).
- (b)Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true, but Reason (R) is not the correct explanation of the Assertion (A).
- (c)Assertion (A) is true, but Reason (R) is false.
- (d)Assertion (A) is false, but Reason (R) is true.
Answer
(a) Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is the correct explanation of the Assertion (A).
