Assertion (A): The diagonals and one side of the parallelograms are given.

Reason (R): Is it possible to construct parallelogram as the diagonals bisect each other.

  1. A is true, but R is false.

  2. A is false, but R is true.

  3. Both A and R are true, and R is the correct reason for A.

  4. Both A and R are true, and R is the incorrect reason for A.

Answer

In a parallelogram, a fundamental property is that the diagonals bisect each other — i.e. each diagonal is split into two equal segments at their intersection.

Since, one side is known and diagonals are known we can create triangles, and thus completely constructing the parallelogram.

∴ Both A and R are true, and R is the correct reason for A.

Hence, option 3 is the correct option.
