From figure,
∠CBE and ∠CBA forms a linear pair.
⇒ ∠CBE + ∠CBA = 180°
⇒ 108° + ∠CBA = 180°
⇒ ∠CBA = 180° - 108°
⇒ ∠CBA = 72°
ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral, opposite angles are supplementary.
So, reason (R) is true.
⇒ ∠CBA + ∠ADC = 180°
⇒ 72° + ∠ADC = 180°
⇒ ∠ADC = 180° - 72°
⇒ ∠ADC = 108°.
So, assertion (A) is true.
Thus, both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are correct, and Reason (R) is the correct reason for Assertion (A).
Hence, option 3 is the correct option.
