  3. Assertion (A) is true but Reason (R) is false.

Answer

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

Explanation

Assertion is true. In set theory, a collection must be "well-defined." The term "tall" is relative and subjective (someone 5'6" might be tall to one person but short to another). Because there is no fixed criteria, it is not a set.

The reason correctly states the definition of a set (a well-defined collection of objects), which explains why the assertion is true.

Hence, option 1 is the correct option.
